Question

Answer 1

I think you are looking for the ImageBrush class:

ImageBrush imageBrush = new ImageBrush();
imageBrush.ImageSource = new BitmapImage(new Uri(@"/path/", UriKind.Relative));
canvas1.Background = imageBrush;

Answer 2

Use this

mycanvas.Background = new ImageBrush() 
          { ImageSource = new BitmapImage((new Uri(mypath, UriKind.Absolute))) };
