In the given example, we have used the AWT and Swing package to used the method getGraphics(). For this, we have used the class BufferedImage. The method image.getGraphics() returns the Graphics object. The method graphics.drawOval(150,50,120,50) draws an oval on the frame and the method graphics.setColor(Color.red) sets the color of the oval.

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;

{
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
  JFrame frame=new JFrame();
  frame.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
  BufferedImage image=new BufferedImage(400,400,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
  Graphics graphics=image.getGraphics();

  graphics.setColor(Color.red);
  graphics.drawOval(150,50,120,50);
  graphics.dispose();
  JLabel label=new JLabel(new ImageIcon(image));
  frame.add(label);
  frame.setTitle("Graphics");
