Known for her intricate approach to the style of Photorealism, Jeanette Pasin Sloan creates technically and visually to the viewer, forcing active participation to differentiate the background from the objects in the foreground. Sloan often uses everyday, household goods to create her elaborate settings. In using popular objects and bright colors, Sloan presents a warm and inviting scene for her viewers to explore on an intimate and detailed level.

Created in 1987, La Terrazza showcases Sloan's close attention to detail and interest in various textures and surfaces that capture and reflect light in a mélange of forms. Placed on a striped background of white and crimson stripes is a barrage of drinking vessels created in various materials. A silver champagne glass, two cups of staggering heights and a cup and saucer enthrall the viewer into this mystical world with the beautifully detailed manner in which light plays frolics across each surface. Sloan creates an intimate scene of a figure in the viewer's space on the surface of the blue wine glass that introduces a bright palette of colors to create the outside landscape.
