Give A Photo A Painted-Edge Look

This is for a simple painted/choppy edge effect in Artweaver. I'm going to do another tutorial on this later. But for now, I'll be showing you the simplest method I know.

First open the photo you want to give the effect to in Artweaver.

Now add a new layer and fill it with white.

Duplicate the background layer (photo) and drag it above the white layer.

Begin erasing the edges of the photo, making back and forth strokes as you go down the side.

You can do two long strokes over the top and bottom.

Or anyway you want.

Later, I will show you how to get a similar effect using your paintbrush tool.
