Here is a software-independent great step-by-step guide. It's done by Wooden Palette, and their site has all the details to make it happen (this is more of a summary to explain the basic principles behind anamorphic art.

STEP 1:

Create a simple grid (or use an existing one).

STEP 2:

Create a perspective plane. You can use a copy of your existing grid, and flatten it. The amount of flattening will depend on the position of the supposed person looking at the drawing.

STEP 3:

Place your art on top of the grids.

STEP 4:

Stretch both your art and the flattened grid back to full height.

STEP 5:

Stretch the art and former flattened grid to full width. Your second grid and your first one should overlap perfectly. Voila! Your anamorphic art is ready to be applied!
