There was a time I wanted to do art as a career, but eventually I decided it wasn't for me, and that my real interests lie in writing and language. I do art as a hobby still, though, and I do still make some spare cash from commissions. As the others have said, art school may not be your best bet. A degree in any sort of art isn't actually necessary for most art fields. That being said, art classes are still helpful. You will need to hone your skills and put together a portfolio. If art classes are how you have to do that, go for it, but getting an art degree for the sake of an art degree may not pay off in the long run (assuming you're in the US where college is insanely expensive).
