Like to look at paintings

Regarding the following three sentences:

(A) Tom likes to look at paintings.
(B) Tom likes to see paintings.
(C) Tom likes to watch paintings.

It appears that (A) sounds right, but what about (B) and (C)? Are they absolutely wrong? Besides, are there any (phrasal) verbs that can replace "look at" in this context?
