He lived in Paris from 1923 till 1939, his works approached the abstract art. He used the aliases Jim Black, Lucas O.Viset for his erotic illustrations.
Luc Lafnet illustrated erotic literature and BDSM stories including F/f, F/M and M/F spanking stories. In these publications he used pseudonyms such as Jim Black, Viset (when working for the publisher Jean Fort) Lucas O, Grim, Rich and Pol. Some of his drawings, published under the name Jim Black, show, dared for his days, bare breasts. He also did some enema art.
