This is a WinForms example with a PictureBox on the form.

 Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        PictureBox1.Image = New Bitmap(400, 400)
        Using oFont As Font = New Font("Arial", 16)
            Using grp = Graphics.FromImage(PictureBox1.Image)
                Dim LongString As String = "THIS IS A  REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY LONG STRING"
                grp.DrawString(LongString, oFont, Brushes.Black, New Rectangle(100, 100, 200, 200))
                grp.Save()
            End Using
        End Using
    End Sub
