First, one must get there, to the doing of it, and training is vital: so motivation prevails, where theres a will theres a way. Traditionnally as in during the renaisance the artist was apprenticed to the master at an early age say 5. Dutys where to sweep the floors go-for & fetch and clean-up. Training began with menial labor in the studio. As the years progessed they learned to mix paints, later they where allowed to practice by painting the outer edges of the masters current piece. The older and more experienced the apprentice was; the closer to the main subject, or figure, he allowed to paint. The master himself was the only one allowed to paint with the expensive pigments such as gold leaf .and lapis lazuli Although the master alone signed, the whole shop produced art;as ordered by patrons.

I believe it is a talent you are born with but if you can tap into your right side of your brain - it can be found too. There is a book called Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain and it shows that if you learn to use that - you can draw. There have been many who have had strokes who suddenly take up art and are good at it. They become right-brained after their left side is affected by stroke.
