If your path has bezier curve segments, then, yes, PathPatch is the most
direct method (see the dolphin.py example). However, if you just need a
series of line segments, then Polygon is probably much simpler for
filling areas.

Mike,
thanks so much for the response. my intent is to build compound paths that
(ideally) include bezier curve approximations to circle segments and
straight-line elements. the final output will most likely be an SVG file so
it would be nice to keep the beziers. but since i'm new to matplotlib,
i apologize in advance for what is undoubtedly a silly question, but, having
looked through the coding examples and the forum i am still a little
confused...
am i correct in understanding that the only way to draw / display a path on
an axes is by converting it to a PathPatch and adding that to
