Well, there might be some in lunarlander, but I haven't looked. Actually there is an directory called apidemos with all you should need. As for your color issues, maybe it'd be best if you posted your ellipse draw code.

Yes i have painted by overriding the onDraw BUT (ooh i hate that word, don't you) when i paint (a ellipse) i get the ellipse and a nice dark gray/black background and the ellipse is not the color i picked (red). i don't think it is the fact that i am not painting a white rec across the whole back because i have done with and without it and i get same result.

and for Dan U. i think i am looking at the API demos like LunarLander???

If it makes a differance i have written a new class called PaintingView that overrided a lot of methods and make it easier (for me i think) to paint.

When you create an Activity in onCreate() method, you use setContentView(). The second method is taking a View object as an argument so you can add whatever View you want. So you can create your View and add it there. Every View has a method onDraw() where you can draw anything you wish to.

I feel that i am a very good Java programmer but learning the language of Android is foreign.

in Java to paint on a JPanel of Applet you override the "paint()" method

how would i do complex painting in Android

i do not wish to learn how to paint maps because out of every tutorial site i have been to just about everyone has been able to draw a map. AND ITS NOT THAT COOL

i want a extremely (for Java) low level painting procedure for Android

and after that i would like a good tutorial site that has more than a remake of Google Maps.
