Refferancing applets

If I wanted to write code in one applet's "draw" to display an image in the other, what would I do?

In the situation below, if I move "image(example.get(0),0,0);" to draw and put "sa." or "SecondApplet." in front of it. I get an error that the name isn't recognizable or that I'm mixing static with non-static. How would I refer to the second applet in this case?

ArrayList<PImage> example = new ArrayList<PImage>();

void setup() {
  size(100, 100);

  text.add(loadImage("example.png"));

  String[] args = {"TwoFrameTest"};
  SecondApplet sa = new SecondApplet();
  PApplet.runSketch(args, sa);
}

void draw() {
  background(0);
  ellipse(50, 50, 10, 10);

}     

public class SecondApplet extends PApplet {

  public void settings() {
    size(200, 100);
  }
  public void draw() {
    background(255);
    fill(0);
    ellipse(100, 50, 10, 10);
    //////////
    image(example.get(0),0,0);
    /////////
  }
}

@LaxOfBayDay===

line 29 change it for: image(text.get(0),0,0):

Sorry that was a mistake. In my program the image is called "text" but in this small example replicating the problem I was trying to change the name to "example".

Edited.

The name's not the issue. I'm wondeing how I could move line 29 to line 16, and still have the image appear in SecondApplet.

You are there... Check this.

PImage example;

void setup() {
  size(100, 100);

  example=createImage(width,height,RGB);
  example.loadPixels();
  for(int i=0;i<width*height;i++)
  example.pixels[i]=color(map(i%width,0,width,0,255));
  example.updatePixels();

  String[] args = {"TwoFrameTest"};
  SecondApplet sa = new SecondApplet();
  PApplet.runSketch(args, sa);
}

void draw() {
  background(0);
  ellipse(50, 50, 10, 10);
  image(example, 0, 0,25,25);
}    

public class SecondApplet extends PApplet {

  public void settings() {
    size(200, 100);
  }
  public void draw() {
    background(255);
    fill(0);
    ellipse(100, 50, 10, 10);
    //////////
    image(example, 0, 0,50,50);
    /////////
  }
}

Howdy, Stranger!
