https://windowjs.org is a very similar concept -- it wraps Skia and exposes it as the Canvas API, but also embeds v8 for a very small runtime instead of using Node.
It was my first open-source project, released about 3 years ago.
I had plans to also expose WebGL, audio, etc and make it a viable platform for Javascript-based games on desktop.
Life and other projects happened instead, and development was discontinued. Happy to see this project also making Canvas accessible outside the browser!
