How can I convert an image into a patch?

I have an image that I want to convert into a patch, and use it as a normal patch.

I also have the V matrix and the F vectoer, of the patch I want my image to become.

How can I do it?

Would a surface be acceptable instead of a patch? If so then see warp() https://www.mathworks.com/help/images/ref/warp.html

If you really need a patch then use the above and then surf2patch() https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/surf2patch.html

Thanks @Walter Roberson.

In addition to warp, I also found this answer useful which sets texture mapping directly in surf().
