use "ink" that has a varying number in the alpha channel -- the fourth
number in a Color object.

Look at the source code for http://mindprod.com/products.html#MASKER

where I generate png images with a transparent background.

see http://mindprod.com/jgloss/colour.html

See http://www.rgagnon.com/javadetails/java-0265.html
for an example on how to turn a blue background into a transparent one.

Transparent images (images with pixels that have an alpha value) will
draw just like any other images. If you are trying to draw an opaque
image transparently, that will take an AlphaComposite.
