Repaint() not being called if i use ImageIO.read()

Question

When i try to set value to BufferedImage called dinoImage in Dino.java in a constructor i just get a blank screen every time (second picture) because repaint() is not being called, but if i set it to null it is working just fine but without this image (first picture).
No exceptions, everything seems fine in this code, this problem appears when i try to set value to this field using static method getImage of Resource.java which uses this line of code ImageIO.read(new File(path)) and it causes that repaint() is not being called, i guess this line causes such weird behavior but i dont know how to solve it.

Main.java

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        GameWindow gameWindow = new GameWindow();
        gameWindow.startGame();

    }

        setVisible(true);
        setResizable(false);

        gameScreen = new GameScreen();

Resource.java

public class Resource {

        return image;
    }

}

Answer 1

    setSize(1000, 500);
    setVisible(true);
    setResizable(false);
    setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

    gameScreen = new GameScreen();
    add(gameScreen);

Swing components need to be added to the frame BEFORE the frame is made visible. Otherwise the panel has a size of (0, 0) and there is nothing to paint.

The code should be something like:

    gameScreen = new GameScreen();
    add(gameScreen);
    setSize(1000, 500);
    setVisible(true);
