"Does anyone know where I could make a job out of this?" Just start quoting prices when ppl ask for pics. Even offer the first one as a freebie if you like, but make it clear it's art, it takes talent, and $$$$ is involved. Some ppl will back off, which mean they're not customers, just gimmee-gimmees who don't perceive value in what you do, but think it's cool to get something custom for free. The ones who are willing to pay are the ones who perceive the value in what you do. Take advantage of word-of-mouth, and make sure you're clearly identified with your product. Dumping my computer IT job was difficult, but I built my rep as an artist and craftsman over 2 years by presenting my work in a professional manner and making it a priority that each customer was left with a firm conviction that what I delivered was precisely what they wanted (even when they hadn't a real idea what they wanted originally :-)). I've been a full-time artist for over 5 years, now because I wasn't afraid to start charging what I felt my work was worth. Good luck.
