Graphics Object
The Graphics class is abstract. It is just a collection of specifications for low-level drawing methods. The graphics object also contains a reference to the area of ram where the bit image will be constructed and it also contains the current clipping region. It is used for all types of painting including placing components, canvas drawing, and laying out text.
