How can you have a TextBox "inside" a PictureBox? It can be "in front" or "behind"; not "inside".

That's got nothing to do with the PictureBox. Maybe you should be looking at "warping" a plain TextBox, or putting a plain, transparent TB over something else that is "curved".

You can draw whatever you want. See:
C#
private void pictureBox1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
    e.Graphics.DrawLine(
        new Pen(Color.Red,2f),
        new Point(0,0),
        new Point(pictureBox1.Size.Width, pictureBox1.Size.Height ));

    e.Graphics.DrawEllipse(
        new Pen(Color.Red, 2f),
        0,0, pictureBox1.Size.Width, pictureBox1.Size.Height  );
}

The same way you can draw text:
C#
using (Font myFont = new Font("Arial", 14))
{
    e.Graphics.DrawString("Hello .NET Guide!", myFont, Brushes.Green, new Point(2, 2));
}
