Why is Drawing and Painting Faces So Difficult? Can I learn?

Everyone knows drawing and painting faces is difficult. They sure have been for me. But learning to draw and paint faces doesn't take a special talent. I'm serious! It simply takes a willingness plus some practice, patience and a learning plan. Let's talk about unlocking that skill. Let's also make this a discussion. If you like to paint or draw portraits share what helped you improve your work or share what your greatest difficulty is.
