Simon Luckinbill Art – The Painter
Though he comes from a lineage of TV superstars, Simon Luckinbill decided to venture into the arts industry by focusing on painting instead of acting.
In an interview with coachellavalleyweekly.com, he is quoted as saying:
After studying music, drums, percussion, poetry and nutrition, I found I had a passion for using color, texture and a hint of fantasy to express myself.
I started looking at painting as a way of self-expression. I find art to be cathartic. I tell stories with my work. After all, art is about emotion. And my art is about me.
He continued to say:
I draw inspiration from many sources: music, nature, vision quests, and, as a Christian, of course, God. These are my source materials.
My work has, primarily, been acrylic on canvas. Although there is no substitute for original art, I enjoy mixing mediums.
I hope you see something in my work that makes you think and feel. Remember art is only about emotion.
Simon Luckinbill has had his masterpieces featured at Gallery 500 which is located at The Five Hundred in Palm Springs
Gallery 500 provides a venue for emerging and well-known artists to exhibit their work.

But we did discover that he is very close with his mother Lucie Arnaz.
During his 39th birthday on December 10th 2019, Lucie took to Instagram to wish her firstborn son and child a happy birthday.
And given how she phrased it, it’s obvious that the 2 are quite close.
It reads:
Thirty-nine years ago today was one of the most magnificent experiences of my life. I gave birth for the first time. Happy birthday, Simon Thomas Luckinbill-Sprite, provocateur, rebel and healer. You have been an adventure and we have learned a lot from being your parents. Thank you for making me a mom. Have a healthy and happy Jack Benny year (look it up!).
