Abstract
The curved twistor space construction of Penrose 1,2 for anti-self-dual solutions to the Einstein vacuum equations is described. Curved twistor spaces are defined and it is shown with the aid of an example how to obtain them by deforming the complex structure of regions of flat twistor space. The connection of this procedure with Newman's H-space construction3 via asymptotic twistor space is outlined.
