android:implement Shared Preference

I am making an app in which i have to draw image in canvas and then SAVE that image in shared preference and then show in next screen .Any help will be appreciated

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(new DrawingPanel(this));
    mPaint = new Paint();
    mPaint.setDither(true);


//    mPaint.setColor(0xFF FF FF FF);
    System.out.println("hello1");
    mPaint.setColor(Color.BLACK);
    System.out.println("hello2");

    mPaint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
    mPaint.setStrokeJoin(Paint.Join.ROUND);
    mPaint.setStrokeCap(Paint.Cap.ROUND);
    mPaint.setStrokeWidth(3);


}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.game_menu, menu);
    return true;
}
@SuppressWarnings("null")
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    // Handle item selection
    switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case R.id.create_new: // **ON THIS CLICK I WANT TO SAVE IMAGE**

            System.out.println("hii");
        //  name = cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA));
            System.out.println("hii1");
            date1 = currentTimeString;
            System.out.println("hii2");
        //  cur = context.getContentResolver().query(MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
            System.out.println("hii3");
        //  File f1=new File("/sdcard/" + date1 + ".png");
            System.out.println("hii4");

          //  FileSave fs = null;
        //  fs.Save(f1);
            // Add a new record without the bitmap, but with the values just set.
            // insert() returns the URI of the new record.
        //  Uri uri = getContentResolver().insert(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);

            // Now get a handle to the file for that record, and save the data into it.
            // Here, sourceBitmap is a Bitmap object representing the file to save to the database.
            try {
                //   FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(path);
                   bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 90, out);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
            }




            return true;

        case R.id.erase:
        System.out.println("new2");
              mPaint.setColor(-1);

If you have drawing cache enabled on your SurfaceView, you can get the last cached Bitmap with the getDrawingCache() method of View.

The Bitmap object implements Parcelable; that means you can directly put it into the Intent that is launching your next Activity with Intent.putExtra(key, bitmap).

Are you using sharedPreference just to use image in another activity, then you are misusing a feature, try instead intent to pass bitmap, or use static variable, though I wont suggest to use static variable.

It's possible, using base64 string representation of the image and then save the string in shared preference and You can save the image path in shared preference also.

You may be able to get the byte array from the bitmap and convert that to a string to save in the shared preference.

But I think saving in sqlite database is a lot more better.
