In the 1980s Jammet worked in freelance and editorial illustration. In 1993, he returned to printmaking, producing a series of Lithographs with Curwen Chilford Prints and later a body of screen prints and etchings with Gresham Studio near Cambridge.
Inspirations include both Napoleonic wars as well as landscape around Corbès, in the foothills of the Cévennes in the south of France where he grew up.
