sorry for being a backseat driver here, but i've got a few more issues to
think about...
one problem i'm having with this design is that if you do have to chain
these
graphics together, having a varargs constructor is not really sufficient
because
there's no way to create a subclass of ArtworkCanvasBehavior that
encapsulates
a set of LAF functionality i want (because super has to be the first
statement in
a constructor)... there needs to at least be a getGraphicsList()
overridable, but
maybe you should step back and think about the design based on examining the
actual functioning of liquid canvas
also, technically shouldn't this be LiquidCanvasBehavior so people know what
they're
dealing with (or did you have some wider scope of functionality in mind?)
in general,
fewer new concepts like "artwork" is better i think...
although i guess Graphics is okay, it really threw me for a loop because i
immediately
assumed it was AWT/Swing.
