Art in modern day has a lot of stereotypes of being feminine, and a guy who likes art often will be stereotyped as gay or feminine. The whole idea of being "artsy" or aesthetic also appeals to the female sense a lot. Of course mostly old masters were men, but because art has such a broad definition now, most art hobbyists are women. Always considered art career-wise to be geared towards men while art generally as a whole or hobby is enjoyed by women
