I think it's true that anyone, given the right amount of training and dedication, could do something
like a, for argument's sake, Picasso. But can they be trained to think in such a way that would enable them to create a Guernica of their own? The problem is that we don't really understand how he came up with it, so how can we learn it? In that sense I tend to agree with Acousticrock's argument above. You can teach someone how to do something that already exists, but not something that's yet to happen.
