Only one tricky bit in this one.

Line and color logic leaves a rectangle c7r6 to c19r11 unsolved except for two green squares in the upper right.
Also r15 c9,15,16,17&19 are still blank.

c7 & c9 must have only one in each; c8 has one 2.
As all row clues are >1, one clue must start in c7 and continue into c8 (at least). A second clue must start in c8 and continue into c9 to fill out the vertical 2 clue in c8. Only one of those clues must reach c9 since there is only a 1 in that column.
Therefore the only clue that can start in column 7 is the 2 in r11. (In other words, starting with a horizontal 3 in c7 will give a vertical 2 in both c8 & c9, which c9 can't have.)

a ha! I did have to read some of the entries to see the picture for what it was, but I thought it was a logically solve. Not too difficult, but cute pic.
