(for Magento2) I want to have an image positioned in a way that it overlaps just slightly with a product category grid list similar to below (sorry for bad ms paint job -- on wife's laptop)
I was hoping someone could give me some "high level" advice, tips, or even a more thorough tutorial on how to accomplish this. Would I create a new product category grid list template? Would I be able to do this by simply editing in the text area where you insert the widget (doubtful imo). Also and perhaps this changes the question, I might also be interested in using the product slider and trying this although I have not yet tested the slider. Please point me in the right direction, and thanks for your assistance!
I am new to Magento but have some front end developing experience
(ps. I posted this in two forums categores because I wasn't sure which it should go to and I am trying to do this ASAP and my wife told me to 
)
