please please please I need some urgent help

I am writing a lift simulation program that involves a lot of animation

at run time when the program has been running for a while I get the
following error :-

Exception occurred during event dispatching:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
        at sun.awt.image.Image.<init>(Compiled Code)
        at sun.awt.windows.WImage.<init>(Compiled Code)

        at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Compiled Code)
        at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Compiled Code)
