American switcheroo

The other day, my friend Tim McGee was asking about using tools like Inkscape and the GIMP to switch out faces on famous paintings, such as American Gothic, with those of his friends. I gave him a short demo with two anonymous faces I found on the web, but I decided to use the very same technique to simply switch the faces of the father and daughter in the painting.
