Use science, math, and art skills to create a drawing on a curved grid. The coordinates used for the drawing on the curved grid are the same as they would be for a square grid. Anamorphic drawings appear distorted from the original and can be difficult to recognize until they are viewed with a cylindrical mirror! A recognizable image seems to “magically” appear!
