I answer to myself:

this is an example for coloring Gtk.DrawingArea:
Gdk.Color color1 = new Gdk.Color (0x0, 0x0, 0xFF);  // a pure blue
myDrawingArea.ModifyBg(StateType.Normal, color1);

Ok. I have probed Frame and DrawingArea with sucess, but Button and 
Label seem not to work with ModifyBg.
Maybe I must use Style or .gtkrc files ...
