Draw Multiple Paths on Canvas Android

I have one class named MyView that extends View..In my options menu i have four types of color.

What i want is when i select green and draw path on canvas it should draw green path and when i select red it should draw red path and previous green should be as it is ...

I got success in drawing multiple paths of various colors but at one time only one color is holding in canvas .. so what can i do to draw multiple color of paths on canvas ??

The way i've done this is to store the color along with the path by subclassing Path:

    private class DrawingPath extends Path
    {
            public DrawingPath(float w, int c)
            {
                    Width = w;
                    Color = c;
            }

            public float Width;
            public int Color;
    }

Then when i draw each of the paths I have I set the color beforehand.

As you can see you can also set the width with this code so you can change the stroke width for each path.

To draw this i used:

mCanvas.drawColor(Color.WHITE);

for (DrawingPath p : mPaths)
{
    mPaint.setColor(p.Color); 
    mPaint.setStrokeWidth(p.Width);
    mCanvas.drawPath(p, mPaint);
}

invalidate();
