I cannot imagine it taking an hour to edit the person out, but I also
cannot imagine doing so. The resulting disembodied jumper/sweater
would look strange.
I used a recent picture of my grandson and, using the Quick Mask, made
everything except his ****rt and pants part of a selection. Then I
applied a strong Gaussian blur to the selection.

Total time: 6 minutes.
It looks a little strange, but the boy wasn't posed for a fa****on
picture.
I used Quick Mask, but there are a number of ways to create a
selection.
