The doctors didn't want Amero's fresco on their walls, either. He is painting, with great care, two stylized white horses on each side of the doorway. The doctors say these horses don't look like horses to them, and that if their patients see such distorted forms they will never get well.

Ariel Zúñiga está convencido de que el mural que pintó Amero en 1937 para el hospital Bellevue no fue destruido, sino recubierto con cal. Su último mural sobrevive en Norman.
