Dark Horse

This is definitely a decent job of altering the artwork of Xu Beihong, and compared to the original, there definitely is a strong aspect to the piece which I think is lacking in the original, in my opinion. The original felt like that an element of life seemed missing in the pose of the horse, and by distorting the lines of your version, it gives the horse a bit more motion in the image without a single flowing motion, which definitely works to what it seems you wanted the piece to look like. And although it might not look as evil as you might have wanted it, it certainly has seemed to reverse the original meaning of the painting, giving it a slight ominous feeling.

However, there are a couple of small notes. First, the distortion on the head makes it slightly hard to figure out how the head is oriented, which does increase the feeling received from the piece yet, at least to me, distracts a little. Also, it is a bit hard to tell ground from background, although the difference is there. Still, overall it certainly does convey what I think you intended to want it to say.
