His
imaginative use of color and design and his aggressive use of vivid, slashing,
colorful patterns exude a sense of strength that are bold, gutsy, personal
statements of a man who has immersed himself fully in life. Pacheco has the rare
ability to transfer these experiences onto canvas. It is this ability that
earned him the Gold Medal and First Prize in Tonneins, France: the First Prize,
Best Colorist at Musee Du Luxembourg. Pacheco was seeing operations and
autopsies as a child and at the same time he was starting his first paintings.
Pacheco helped finance his medical education by contributing his cartoons to
major national magazines. The anatomical integrity of painted images
stems from expertise gained through medical training. His other motifs were
affected by art-historical influences-specifically Vincent Van Gogh, Mexicans,
Tamayo and Diego Rivera and Rufino Tamayo, the Germans, George Grosz and Oscar
Kokoscka, and the Americans, Thomas Hart Benton and Fletcher Martin.
