The results are in from last week's public vote for its favorite doodle from the Doodle 4 Google art competition, in which Google invited students in grades K-12 to design the Google logo around the theme "What if...?"
Today, they're pleased to announce the winner: Grace (Suryung) Moon, a 6th grader from Canyon Middle School in Castro Valley, California. Her creation, "Up in the Clouds" was selected for its artistry and creativity as well as for its interpretation of the "What if...?" theme. Grace's doodle will replace Google's regular logo on their homepage tomorrow, May 22nd, and Grace will be awarded a $10,000 college scholarship and a $25,000 technology grant for her school in recognition of this achievement.
