Probably the best approach.

I had a quick look and for the first part of the second question:

The TypeError is saying that the argument expected should be a Python
type supporting iteration, such as a numpy array, a list or a tuple.
i.e. this produces a rectangle:
ax.fill([1,1,2,2],[3,4,4,3],'b')
where the two lists contain the x- and y-coordinate polygon vertices,
respectively, ordered clockwise from the lower left.
It would take me a bit of mucking around to work out what the bar
coordinates are - hopefully an expert will pipe in with the answer. You
probably need to work out how to apply the get_verts method to the patch
collection. I find using ipython interactively is the best way to learn
to do this.
