This was super useful, thanks for the class!! I felt super blocked with edge control before, and often didn't like how the final painting ended up looking, but now I feel like I finally understand how to make the focus of the image through the edges. 

I did definitely "cheat" a bit by using the blur tool on the "finished" painting to get rid of all the sketchy lines and to take away the focus from the unfinished bits, but I feel like it ends up looking kinda cool!
