Good drawing - is it just talent or can it be learned?

[QUOTE="caudor, post: 2534471, member: 8367"] One thing I can't do well is draw (or paint). Yet, I see advertising from different art schools and how-to books that say that anyone that can tie their shoes can draw. I've even tried some of the books, but whatever the right stuff is---I obviously don't have it. I would love to be able to draw, but I don't see this as attainable in my case. It is assumed that just about any child can learn to read (and most do); however, not just anyone can draw well. Is drawing an talent one is born with, or can people like me [I]learn[/I] with hard work and training? Or does it require both talent and training? Perhaps there are parts of the brain that develop in some people and does not in others. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
