Normally what we will do to fill the color in widget with paintEvent is by using setPen & setBrush, as shown below.

void paintEvent(QPaintEvent *event)
{
      QPainter p(this);
      p.setPen(QPen(Qt::black, 1, Qt::SolidLine, Qt::RoundCap));
      p.setBrush(QBrush(Qt::black, Qt::SolidPattern));
      p.drawEllipse(0, 0, width() - 1, height() - 1);
      p.end();
      QLabel::paintEvent(event);
}

void paintEvent(QPaintEvent *event)
{
      QPainter p(this);
      p.setPen(QPen(Qt::black, 1, Qt::SolidLine, Qt::RoundCap));
      p.setBrush(QBrush(Qt::black, Qt::SolidPattern));
      p.drawEllipse(0, 0, width() - 1, height() - 1);
      p.end();
      QLabel::paintEvent(event);
}

Here in the above shown example I am filling circle with black color.

But my problem is I have to fill the circle with random colors taken from some other functionality. I cannot pass that color into this paintEvent function. So I have to do some other things which fills color for the circle outside paintEvent functionality.

So how to fill color for the circle ?
