I have made my living as an illustrator/graphic designer/online animation developer and I am nearing the end of my formal career. On the weekends, I paint landscapes and sell them online. I have made a comfortable living doing this for over 30 years with a family and children. The field of graphic design is wide open with more jobs available than just about anything I know. You don’t even have to have a degree. Just put together a halfway decent portfolio and you are in. If you are good, you will rise quickly in the field.
With purely fine art, it is harder, but if you are good and market yourself aggressively, you can be successful here also.
