Luke has received grants from Canada Council for the Arts, the Ontario Arts Council and the Toronto Arts Council.

Painter states the following about his practice:

As a practicing artist, drawing has been at the core of my work and an important way of researching art and design movements, technology and contemporary life. Through the physical act of drawing, I look for formal, historical and tangential connections between images as a method to highlight and rework them for the purpose of reflection.
