Thank you. Your response prompted me to have another look.
<http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/misc/jlayer.html#drawing>

So that from the example:

class WallpaperLayerUI extends LayerUI<JComponent> {
   @Override
   public void paint(Graphics g, JComponent c) {
     super.paint(g, c);

     Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g.create();

     int w = c.getWidth();
     int h = c.getHeight();
     g2.setComposite(AlphaComposite.getInstance(
             AlphaComposite.SRC_OVER, .5f));
     g2.setPaint(new GradientPaint(0, 0, Color.yellow, 0, h, Color.red));
     g2.fillRect(0, 0, w, h);

     g2.dispose();
   }
}

Which answers my question to the OP regards
create and dispose of graphics object.
