Questions:

* Will the colour blob always be in the same general position and size?

* Do you wish to fill a standard artLayer with a raster fill, or do you wish to replace the existing layer with a vector solid fill layer?

EDIT: Here is an example where the colour blob has coloured pixels in the centre of the document and the fill is a simple raster fill replacing the pixel content in the current layer.
