1) Right click anywhere on the report
2) Select Insert --> OLE Object
3) Create from File
4) Select your source
5) Click OK

That should do.

You need to convert the image into stream of bytes and then populate the datasource for your report.

Have a look at these:

Use CR11, so that you can load dynamic images using parameters.
