A Canvas component represents a blank rectangular 
 area of the screen onto which the application can draw or from 
 which the application can trap input events from the user. 
 
 An application must subclass the Canvas class in 
 order to get useful functionality such as creating a custom 
 component. The paint method must be overridden 
 in order to perform custom graphics on the canvas.
