GOOGLE DOODLE - CELEBRATING ARATI SAHA'S 80th BIRTHDAY
I had the incredible opportunity to be a guest artist and design a Google Doodle for the 24th of September, celebrating Arati Saha's 80th birthday - the first Asian woman to swim across the English Channel. I am personally inspired by her legend as we both hail from the city of Kolkata!
I still need to pinch myself to believe it and am unbelievably thankful for this once in a lifetime opportunity!!

A big thank you also to the amazing Lydia Nichols, the art director on this Doodle!
Here is the final art for the doodle:
