N.C. Wyeth once said: “Every illustration or painting that I have made in the last thirty years has been done from the imagination or the memory.”
Wyeth quoted a teacher of his, Charles Reed of Boston in advising him: “The faculty of memory has become a lost function among American artists." He (Reed) blamed what he saw as the lack of mood and imagination in their work to this thought.
