If Paintings Came To Life

If paintings could come to life would I bring home a grizzly bear? To be activated when my great aunt begins her tedious tales? Would I skip the flowers and rainbows in favor of blood and guts? If we could smell the painting would blood smell chase moochers off? If paintings could come to life, would they do it on their own? Spur of the moment? Or would they have to be activated? I imagine clicking on an ocean and trying not to laugh As it drowns the neighbor who is an incessant talker.
