function draw() {
  image(backgroundImage, 0, 0, width, height);
}

1. Run your sketch and you should see the image loaded as the background.

Note: Make sure to replace 'path_to_your_image.jpg' with the actual path to your image file. You can also use .png, .jpeg, or other image file formats supported by p5.js.
