Costa Rican artist Elizabeth Argüello designed a Google doodle

The Costa Rican artist and muralist Elizabeth Argüello designed the Google doodle (logo) for Sunday’s World Cup match against Serbia, the daily La Nación reported.

For the design she decided to focus on the celebration at the Fuente de la Hispanidad, faces painted with the Costa Rican colors, La Sele‘s jersey, a traditional chonete (Costa Rican hat), and of course a nod to our country’s nature.
