As noted in The Female Gaze, "Jacquette's works begin with direct studies made with pastel on paper or photographs taken from airplanes, skyscrapers, or rented single-engine planes. She has been described as the 'Canaletto of the skies.' Her paintings are intensely colored, elaborately detailed panoramas of cities, and the countryside at various day and night. Unique vies and radical angles draw attention to the act of perception, anthropomorphizing the buildings that occupy her urbanscapes."
