Interesting thread. At first, I didn't get exactly what you were saying, but then I did. I see/hear beauty (art, real life [flowers, sunsets, etc...], music, etc...). My brain often sees or hears something and interprets it as beauty. But then my brain is wired, I think, like an engineer. So seeing/hearing beauty (in life or in my head) and then translating those things to representations (art) is difficult for the reasons stated. I've had some art classes, and as a kid did a lot of drawing. Maybe I'd have been better with more practice. I occasionally get it somewhat right. Art is a lot of work. I find these days that I'd rather enjoy beauty than try to capture it myself.

Here is one of mine painted from a live model in about 30 minutes. You need to draw or paint what you see, not what you know. Sounds simple but it isn't. The tools you use don't matter much. When people say to an artist something like "you are so talented" they have no idea. There is probably some artistic ability that artists have but that doesn't get you very far. Like anything else you need to put in the thousands of hours practicing your craft to become good at it.
