Well done, the story is a unique twist on the picture, and is extremely well written with no errors. It is refreshing that it wasn't a story about dragons, though the title of the painting is, your artistic license, and the abstract nature of the painting work well together. i doubt someone would tell Picasso, it doesn't fit the description, art, and poetry is an ar form of the highest order, iis best when constantly reinterpretated and given new meaning, and this what you have so excellently done - you chose imagination over stipulation, and in this particlar instance, given the degree of artistry presented in the work, imagintion trumped the stipulation card. Art is alive and is in constant flux, forever changing, you did well. enjoyed the piece.
