In wxPython/demo resides run.py which demo scripts import.
But *you* don't want to follow pretty complex demo framework in your
program.

Start with something very simple like that:

from wxPython.wx import *

class MainFrame(wxFrame):
    def __init__(self, parent, id, title):
        # create a frame for our demo
        wxFrame.__init__(self, parent, id, title)

        self.drawPanel = wxScrolledWindow(self, -1, style=wxSUNKEN_BORDER)
        self.drawPanel.SetBackgroundColour(wxWHITE)

        self.bmp=wxImage('test.jpg', wxBITMAP_TYPE_JPEG).ConvertToBitmap()
        EVT_PAINT(self.drawPanel, self.draw)

    def draw(self,evt):
        dc = wxPaintDC(self.drawPanel)
        self.drawPanel.PrepareDC(dc)
        dc.BeginDrawing()
        dc.DrawBitmap(self.bmp, 0, 0)
        dc.SetBrush(wxBLACK_BRUSH)
        dc.SetPen(wxGREY_PEN)
        dc.DrawLine(0,0,200,200)
        dc.EndDrawing()

class App(wxApp):
    def OnInit(self):
        wxInitAllImageHandlers()
        frame = MainFrame(NULL, -1, 'JPG Demo')
        frame.Show(true)
        self.SetTopWindow(frame)
        return true

app=App(0)
app.MainLoop()
