Google is celebrating International Women's Day 2018 with a doodle comprising of works by female artists. International Women's Day is observed on March 8 every year celebrating women and their works. The beautifully illustrated comics talk diverse stories of women coming from different backgrounds. It is based on themes of love, family, relationships, loss, and life. While Phillipa Rice's 'Trust' says how her new mother does not know what she's doing,  Kaveri Gopalakrishnan's 'On the Roof'  describes her love of reading. Meanwhile 'Homeland' by Saffa Khan is about growing up in her home country.

For the women's day doodle, Google approached 12 female artists from varying backgrounds to share their stories. One can go through the catchy stories by clicking on the play button. Reportedly, according to Google, each story represents "a moment, person, or event that has impacted their lives as women. While each artist tells a unique story, the themes are universal, reminding us of how much we often have in common."
