  Joan Miro Google Logo
miro - google logoThe Spanish artist Joan Miro is having a birthday on the 20th of April, so Google is celebrating the occasion with a Miro-esque Google Logo.
I think it's probably one of the best logos they have done, even though Miro isn't one of my favorite artists. It doesn't stick to the Google logo so rigidly, like the Vincent, Lloyd Wright, or other attempts.
United Kingdom kids can also enter the Google Doodle competition to have their logo featured on the Google UK homepage, which will give Dennis Hwang a day off.
Would be nice to have an international competition, with no age barriers. With the winner having their homepage featured on Google.com for a day.
The winner would definitely have to upgrade their webhost for the day!

Yeah, I just went to google.com and saw it; LOVE IT! It's one of their better versions.
Happy Birthday MIRO!
 
Hey there,

Thought you might be interested in Warren Leonhardt's blog - he sketches with brush pen from photograhps. These are incredible - amazing what you can capture with a photograph!
 
Nice work. Very expressive.
A lot of the sketches look like theyre about to jump off the page ;-)
