Benjamin’s Answer

Some people, such as your parents, urge you to aim for higher education (even art in your case) after graduation from high school. Well, you SHOULDN'T. Colleges and universities only give you a greater sense of reality more than guaranteeing you a degree.

Ironically, this doesn't mean you should give up your dream job as an artist. You can invest some of your free times on building any kind of art portfolio, then showcase it to the public in your own personal website. Above all, make sure you connect with professional artists and invite them to look at your works of art. You might have a random chance of getting hired by any of them.

Carlos’s Answer

It might depend on the type of art you want to do but from my experience when I was looking into art schools I just looked for colleges or art schools that were specific in the type of art medium I wanted to get into. At the time I was looking which was like 23yrs ago, I wanted to get into comic book or animation so I looked into Collins College in Arizona as one option but they are now closed. So the other options were Academy of Art University in San Francisco, School of Art Institute of Chicago, Reed College or California Institute of the Arts, i ended up going to an Art school in Portland, Oregon that is now defunct.

My advice is research the art schools you feel would best suit your needs, look at the surrounding areas, dorms, school/work life and then narrow it down to 3 schools and then narrow it down to 2 schools. Make a portfolio of your best pieces, also try going outside your comfort zone with different types of art so you will be a versatile artist kinda like tattoo artists so are one dimensional, some are known for a certain style and some are known for being able to do it all.
