drawImage() not working

A simplified version of the above answer.

  //Create Canvas
  var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
  canvas.width = 720 
  canvas.height = 500;

  //Get Context
  var ctx  = canvas.getContext("2d");
  ctx .fillStyle = "black";
  ctx .fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

  //Load Image
  var img = new Image();
  img.src = "https://images.pexels.com/photos/3722151/pexels-photo-3722151.jpeg";
  img.onload = function() {
  ctx .drawImage(
    img,
    0,
    0,
    canvas.width,
    canvas.height
  );
};

  //Add Canvas
  canvas.id = "fatLady";
  document.body.appendChild(canvas);

You almost have it...

You just have to give the image time to load before drawing it.

You give an image time to load with this code:

var logoImg = new Image();
logoImg.onload = function() {

    // At this point, the image is fully loaded
    // So do your thing!

};
logoImg.src = "myPic.png";
