Hello and welcome to Joy of Painting. Our topic today is color. All your favorite pretty hues.

Let’s start with a canvas of smooth, over-dyed sateen twill with a little stretch. Sure, give it a rub. Feels so good to the touch.

Then let’s taper our masterpieces from top to bottom for a perfect skinny fit. And maybe add a stroke of low-rise. Nothing too much — butt cleavage is a stain on your work.

Now here’s where it gets truly exciting. On the palette, we have happy shades of purple, turquoise, red, fuchsia, black, and mustard. And, of course, a dark blue denim.

The works of art are made by and available exclusively from our favorite denim experts at Up Against the Wall.

Remember: Colors are your friends. Don’t be afraid to be bold.

After all, there are no mistakes. Only happy accidents.
