PAINTING - The paint() method and the graphics context,selecting a color,selecting a font,drawing and filling, clipping,painting a contained component, GUI thread and the repaint() method, spontaneous painting, repaint() method, images.

Hi Suresh, Your book should be good enough. The Red and White book just combines your book with the developers certification study guide. The first 13 chapters are still the same as your book. Regards, Manfred.
