Ever wonder about the holiday special Google logos? From Frank Barnako's CBS Marketwatch update I receive from Schwab daily:
The artist behind some Google whimsy
Dennis Hwang could be the most-viewed artist in the world. In history,
even. He's the guy who draws the colorful themed logos that highlight
Google's pages on holidays. The 26-year-old art major "marvels" at the
number of people who see his occasional work, according to The Mercury
News. He started by "dabbling" with doodles created by an outside
contractor. When his talent became obvious, a small committee was
organized to decide which holidays would get the art. Google decided
some untraditional observances would also get the treatment, including
the anniversary of flight and the birthday of Albert Einstein. An
archive of Hwang's logos is available.
Check them out here at the ARCHIVE.
Enjoy!
