I need to know how I can draw an image on a canvas element, through JQuery. I really wanted to use JQuery because it’s much simpler and I know more about it that pure javascript, although I will use javascript if i have to.

There is no jQuery functionality specific to canvas. There are other libraries that abstract that, though, such as canto, artisanjs, processing.js, easel.js, fabricjs, gury.js.
I usually begin with familiarizing myself with the basics, though, before I use someone else’s API. The canvas API is pretty chatty, but it’s not difficult to use. Here’s a good tutorial on MDN.
