Sorry I Missed Your Call

Lucy SM Johnston

Sorry I Missed Your Call is a bold series of original contemporary acrylic paintings for sale by Lucy SM Johnston. Comprising one-of-a-kind artworks - including six brand new pieces - the collection explores desire, nostalgia, and visual seduction through the recurring motif of sensuous, disembodied lips. Each painting is an original acrylic on canvas, created to stand alone as a statement artwork.

These lips don’t whisper — they linger, provoke, and threaten to devour. Cropped and isolated, they exist somewhere between glamour and danger, drawing on the high-impact visual language of 1980s pop art and pop culture. Saturated colour, graphic pattern, and cinematic contrast give the series its unmistakable retro edge, reimagined through a contemporary female perspective.

Executed in acrylic on canvas, each original painting combines bold, graphic colour with visible brushwork and tactile surface detail. Electric turquoises, punchy pinks, deep blacks, and candy-bright accents collide at exaggerated scale, creating statement wall art that commands attention. These collectible artworks deliver immediate visual impact while rewarding closer inspection.

This collection is not for the faint-hearted. Sorry I Missed Your Call is ideal for maximalist interiors, expressive homes, and collectors seeking bold contemporary art with personality and attitude. Whether displayed as a centrepiece above a sofa or as part of a striking gallery wall, these original acrylic paintings bring colour, confidence, and energy into any space.

Provocative, nostalgic, and unapologetically bold, Sorry I Missed Your Call offers collectible original paintings for buyers looking to invest in distinctive contemporary art that refuses to blend into the background.
