Art historian Patricia Border wrote, “Ufer enjoyed the role of storyteller, and his paintings are rich in narrative value. His palette varied little during the later years of his career. He painted the golden earth of the sun-baked desert, the greens of the sagebrush and desert vegetation, and the brilliant blue sky of New Mexico. For his shadows he frequently used purple, the complement of the desert yellow. His only black was mixed from permanent blue and burnt sienna. He treated figure and background as integral elements of a single entity, advising: ‘Treat things as a whole. The horse becomes a part of the mesa and takes on the colors of the mesa.’”
