How to design a GOOGLE DOODLE

Earlier in the year I was honored to be asked by Google to create this year's doodle celebrating Wales' St. David's Day on March 1st. I put together this short film showing my thought process and how I designed the 'lovespoon' doodle. A bonus of the project was seeing the design realized as an actual carved spoon by the Lovespoon Gallery in Wales. Visit their site here http://www.lovespoons.co.uk/
