    Has anyone ever drawn a sketch on a cylinder and is it even possible? I
    need to draw shapes on a cylinder that appear as true shapes on the surface
    of the cylinder kind of like wrapping a piece of paper and sticking it to a
    cylinder....is this even possible?

    There are three things you can do. One is the wrap function already
    mentioned. Another is the Spline on Surface, and the third is a
    projected curve. It depends on what you need to do with the geometry.
