Another newbie question

[solaris_1234]

I am a python newbie and have been trying to learn python. To this
end, I have coded the following program creates:
a 8 by 8 checker board
Places two checkers on the board
Checks the board and prints out which squares has a checker on them.

It works. But I have a one question:

1)  The stmt "board.Blist[10].DrawQueen(board.Blist[10].b1)" seems
awkward. Is there another way (cleaner, more intuitive) to get the
same thing done?

I appreciate any and all input on how the following program could be
improved.

from Tkinter import *
import time
totalSolutionCount = 0
    
class MyBox:
   def __init__(self, myC, myrow, mycolumn, color):
      self.b1 = Canvas(myC, background=color, width=50, height=50)
      self.b1.grid(row=myrow, column=mycolumn)
      self.occupied = 0 
        
   def ChangebgColor(self, box):
      box.config(bg="black")

   def DrawQueen(self, box):
      box.item = box.create_oval(4,4,50,50,fill="black")
      self.occupied = 1 
      box.update()

   def unDrawQueen(self, box):
      box.delete(box.item)
      self.occupied = 0
      box.update()

class MyBoard(MyBox) :
   def __init__(self, myC):
      self.Blist = []
      count=0
      for i in range(8):
         count += 1
         for j in range(8):
            count += 1
            if (count%2):   
               self.Blist.append(MyBox(myContainer,i,j, "red"))
            else:
               self.Blist.append(MyBox(myContainer,i,j, "green"))


root=Tk()
myContainer = Frame(root)
myContainer.pack()

board=MyBoard(myContainer)

board.Blist[10].DrawQueen(board.Blist[10].b1)
board.Blist[22].DrawQueen(board.Blist[22].b1)

raw_input()  # A Hack debug statement

for i in range(64):
   if board.Blist[i].occupied == 1:
      print i, "is occupied"

raw_input()  # A Hack debug statement
print "\n"*3
