All you really need is a creative mind....really thats it. Gotta learn the software, but other than that an imagination only skill you have to have....everything else will come.

I am trying to get a grasp on what are the Photoshop Skills?

Or this software specific or skill specific... and if so, what skills.

What are the skills one needs to acquire to make good Digital Art?

First of all you need to know what you have to create. Then you need to have knowledge about the different graphics tools to let you decide which tool will be better to achieve your goals. To first try to learn the popular graphics tools by trying basic to advanced step by step tutorials. One you have strong know-how about the tools you can easily create any graphics art you like.

Digital art is like any other form of art. Photoshop is merely a tool which most people can learn how to use in the same way that you can learn how to use paintbrushes. The same prinicples of design, form, tone, perception apply as with any visual art.

Have a look at deviantart.com there are great digital arists there, lots of free stock photos and many good tutorials.
