import it on a layer...Document>Import...select file.... if you want it the actual size of the draw set the canvas size to that size....you can also import the image as a texture..Texture>Import...and choose the 3d plane tool and drag and size that plane to the size you want and the pic will be on that plane...choose the flat material when doing that for best results....and you can then add another layer to work on with that as your background. Hope this helps a bit.
