An image processing apparatus and method generates, from a two-dimensional image, expanded images obtained by expanding, on a two-dimensional plane, a plurality of surfaces constituting a three-dimensional object displayed in the two-dimensional image. In the image processing apparatus and method, based on shape information of the shape of a surface among the surfaces constituting the three-dimensional object and on characteristic points in the two-dimensional image which are included in the surface, a transform expression is computed that transforms each of the surfaces constituting the three-dimensional object into one of the expanded images at the time of designation of the shape information and the characteristic points. Based on the transform expression, each of the surfaces constituting the three-dimensional object displayed in the two-dimensional image is transformed into one of the expanded images. By connecting the expanded images of the surfaces in accordance with connecting relationship among the surfaces, a connected image is generated.
