In honor of Mother's Day, this should win. Nobody (but nobody) could paint mothers and children like Mary Cassatt, and I'm bringing beautiful art to the people.#2: bugaboo (bugaboo) on May 5, 2011

great image#3: Wombat (wombatilim) on May 5, 2011 [HINT]
line and color logic solves about 90% of this
then i dont know if i logically solved the last little bit (the babys arm) or not without looking ahead more than a couple steps

Kristen, you did a fantastic job with this one. It's really amazing how you captured the essence of the original.#16: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on May 15, 2011

Fun solve. I love that painting but while I saw the baby, I didn't see the hand until I read the story. Tough image to do in so small a puzzle. Good job.
