"The favourite materials of the artist are water-colours, gouache and Indian ink. She discovers their secretive recources, helps them to open the maximum of their expressiveness and creates the lyric tunes that raise the world of meditation, remeniscences and associations. The poetry of her works combines the concrete reality with the concealed melancholy and kind irony.

Elena Pachomova continues the best traditions of European painting in the sphere of perceptions of the Nature. At the same time she understands the voices of esoteric mysteries of the East and fills her masterpieces with unique energetics which permits to see the movement of the inner essence of static landscapes and architectural forms. It lets to hear an echo of remote times in the reflection of the present. The philosophy of her paintings is full of hidden forces opening us the possibility of cognizing the world and its laws.

The works of Elena Pachomova dedicating to polugraphic design are no less interesting. Whatevere them she takes - the illustrations for children, literature, pictures of medieval side-arms, composition of mythological topics or a book of modern poetry - in each case she founds the unusual solution and makes the images which have a deep undercurrent and emotional soundings".
