A Nelson girl's artwork will be seen by millions of people.

Eight-year-old Amelia Abbott has won the Doodle 4 Google competition, which asked students from Years 1 through 10 to give the Google logo a Kiwi makeover.

And her success in the competition could indicate her future career. Amelia says she wants to be either an artist or a soccer player.

Her design Green and Gorgeous will appear on the search engine's New Zealand homepage one day next year.
