Just look at the world around you. Cars, furniture, books -- they've all been designed by people with an eye for art, working in careers that pay well. If you are a chronic doodler there is some hope for you. Some possible roles:

Fine artists, including painters, sculptors, and illustrators create original artwork, using a variety of media and techniques. Usually, fine artists specialize in one or two art forms, such as painting, illustrating, sketching, sculpting, printmaking, and restoring.

Painters, illustrators, cartoonists, and sketch artists work with two-dimensional art forms, using shading, perspective, and color to produce realistic scenes or abstractions.

Illustrators typically create pictures for books, magazines, and other publications, and for commercial products such as textiles, wrapping paper, stationery, greeting cards, and calendars. Increasingly, illustrators work in digital format, preparing work directly on a computer.

Multi-media artists and animators create special effects, animation, or other visual images on film, on video, or with computers or other electronic media.

Art directors formulate design concepts and presentation approaches for visual communications media.
