You can store your Image to database with 2 ways-

1. By converting image to byte[]
   1. convert Image to bytes[] and save it to sqlite Blob type parameter.
   2. get that Blob datatype and store again to byte[] and then convert to Image
2. By converting image to base64 string
   1. Convert image to base64 string store to sqlite in varchar/varchar2 type
   2. get base64 string from sqlite db and convert to image
