Draw over some controls

I know subject is confusing...
This is the ideea:
I have 3 controls..custom.
I have a control that act as a container for them.. does 3 containers fill
completly the container one...
That container control is the one I use in my form
Anyway, I draw some fancy borders on the parent control (the container).

Question: Is there any chance to draw on a upper layer that is visible over
does controls?
I have some nasty corners that I want to overlap any controls the container
may have...

Some of the members of the 'ControlPaint' class will draw over the
controls.
