Use the Paint event. The EventArgs contains a Graphics object that you can use for the drawing.

--- Year happy = new Year(2007);

I don't think that you understood the question at all...

--- Year happy = new Year(2007);

You don't. The event will be called whenever the control needs to be drawn. That is the way that you provide the code that the system uses to draw your control.
