Should I persue a career in video game art?

I have been drawing since my furthest memories and I am currently struggling to regain my creativity after a few years of uninspiring situations. The ability is still there and the passion is beginning to rekindle but I am having a hard time deciding the direction in which to take my art. Since I was a child the idea of bringing my drawings and creations to life has fascinated me. I’ve decided that video game art would be a great way to do that, though I am intimidated to make my passion my work. I’m also unsure of what steps to take to get started on that path. If anyone has some insight about the video game art career or other creative careers please let me know.
