I think it's similar to coding in that the more you code the more you get used to the type of abstract thinking that coding involves and you can keep more complicated patterns and structures in your mind at once. Drawing is very similar in that people who just start out can just keep in their minds the symbolic representation of an eye or tree instead of the 3d forms + lights and shadows, texture, stylization, etc. Drawing has of course a muscle memory component but the process of learning both coding and drawing is very similar i think, even if the type of thinking required is not the same.
