More Doodles

Jul 4, 2011

There are so many symbols that represent the United States that it's impossible to pick just one. So, instead for 2011's 4th of July Doodle, I roughly divided the logo into regions and illustrated a something iconic from that section of the country.


True story: I was once almost killed by an alligator in Mexico. US alligators and I are totally cool, but this gator didn't make the final version.

I was especially excited to feature favorite sights from a few of the places I've lived near to in the US, from San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge to New York's Statue of Liberty, with Chicago's Sears/Willis Tower in the middle. (I-80 and I go way back.)
