Good luck! I know someone without a degree of any kind (just 2 years and then dropped out) with modest digital art skills (you have far more already!) who pieced together graphic design jobs with different websites that needed graphics done. For awhile there she had part-time job with a small education company and she drew the simple graphics for “connect the dots” activity sheets and other handouts that teachers use… over time she got really good at doing other graphics (for like SIMS) just for fun… and eventually she got so good that she works for a face-book gaming company making a great salary. You really just need to get your toe in the door for art-related work and keep developing your skills on your own, too. This friend really needed to just believe she could stick with it.
