Sry, Forgot to add that I'm using away3dlite, which has no ownCanvas property, right? Anyhow, I found this way to do it:
plane.layer = DrawGraphic.RECTANGLE(140, 140, Math.random()*0xffffff);
this.$parent.$view.addChild(plane.layer);
TweenLite.to(this.plane.layer,2,{colorTransform:{tint:0xff0000,
tintAmount:0.5}});
THanks so much for the help
