interact with the outside world."

The thing about wizard paintings is that they CAN interact with 
Harry's world which makes me wonder whether the people depicted in 
them were ever real. If so was a seperate entity created when the 
portrait was painted? 

The most likely solution to me is that the paintings are created as 
individuals, and the pictures are just copies of others.
