So I was looking up paintings cause for our final art project, we are to take a painting and alter it somehow.  It could be simply putting a fold in the painting, or you can actually change part of the painting.  So I was looking up some of Rene Magrritte's paintings, cause her paintings seem like they would be easy to change something of, and I came across this:
