Doodle4Google India Competition (Theme: My India) winner announced. In August 2009, Google India launched a doodling competition called Doodle4Google. Open to students from Class 1 to X, the contest was judged by a panel comprising renowned cartoonist N Ponnappa, artist Raghava KK and the faculty of the National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad. It took 90 days, over 4,000 entries and 60,000 votes for India to get its first local drawn doodle, which will be displayed on Google’s homepage on November 14, 2009 to mark Children’s Day.
Puru Pratap Singh (9 year old), a Class IV student from Gurgaon with his winning doodle (My India- full of life), chosen by master doodler Dennis Hwang, will be featured on Google all day on November 14.
Puru, a student of Amity International, Gurgaon, said, "My doodle is based on the theme ‘My India Full of Life’. The ‘G’ (in Google) explains India is a land of diversity and a country which has a blend of traditions and religions. The peacock in my artwork describes the vibrant Indian culture. With ‘O’ I have tried to represent the country’s success in discovering water on Moon." "In the other ‘G’ I have depicted Kashmir, the crown of India. ‘L’ shows the Amar Jawan Jyoti that reminds us of the sacrifices made by Indian soldiers. And we cannot think of India without Mahatma Gandhi so I have dedicated ‘E’ to him," Puru said. Puru gives the credit of his win to his mother Arti. "We are proud his creation has been selected and will be on Google’s homepage for a day," said Puru’s parents Navin Pratap Singh and Arti. Puru has also been awarded a laptop, a t-shirt with his doodle and Rs 1,00,000 as technology grant for his school.

Each Doodle submitted represented the immense creative talent and richness of ideas of students across the country. The champion doodler has been drawing since he could hold a crayon. In addition, all finalists will be given a Doodle4Google certificate along with a Google goody bag.

Jessie Du (11) from Sydney’s west is this years winner for the Doogle4Google Australia competition with her doodle entry “Australia Forever”.
The Winning "Google Doodle" will be displayed on Google Australia’s homepage on Australia Day January 26. Millions of people are expected to view the artwork on the 11-year-old New South Wales girl, which depicts a series of native animals shaped to form the Google logo.
The Rydalmere East Public School student’s entry, titled Australia Forever, was chosen from thousands in the search engine giant’s Doodle 4 Google competition.

Du said her entry symbolised her wish to protect Australia’s natural environment.
"Our native animals make our great country unique and should they become extinct or threatened this would be appalling to everyone," she said.
"The night sky studded with stars signifies that we must stop polluting the air so we can see the beautiful, gleaming stars."
Google’s original doodler, Dennis Hwang, said Jessie Du’s drawing stood out because of its creativity and warmth.
"It’s a beautiful illustration," he said.
The entries were judged by Australian artist Ken Done, photographer Anne Geddes and Hugh Evans, director of the Global Poverty Project. The judging panel chose 32 winners, with the public voting on the final four.
