There are a couple different ways to do it. One way is to create a GTileLayer object and implement the getTileURL() to return the URL pointing to your tiles.
But first you’ll need an image that’s cut properly in the tile format. For starters, I’d recommend you look at MapTiler: http://www.maptiler.org/ It will cut images for you AND generate a GoogleMap with the overlay.
