Graphic Design

• A graphic arts career is one of the most common professional art careers. This work involves creating graphics to be used in advertising materials and websites and laying out print materials in a pleasing format. This is one of the most common careers in visual art for women.
  
  

Web Design

• Many companies have their own web designers on staff, or they hire this work out to freelance designers. A web designer will need to have a good working knowledge of html and perhaps some other Internet coding languages, as well. Information technology is generally a male-dominated field, but web design features more women because of the artistic component.
  
  

Tattoo Design

• Tattoo design may be one of the more bohemian careers featured on this list, but it is also the only one that features a pen-and-ink form of art. Tattoo designers have the opportunity to create a style that is unique and build a reputation in their region. Fewer women than men pursue this career, and those who do are able to carve a niche for themselves in terms of style and approach.
  
  

Game Illustration

• This may be the most lucrative area of art listed here as video games are a popular and ever-growing industry. Furthermore, there are very few women currently in this field, which means that there is an opening for girls and women to make their mark.
  
  

Film Animation

• Film animation teams are larger groups of computer illustrators who earn a decent wage for their work, but with fewer films being made than websites, advertising materials and video games, there are fewer opportunities to work with film animation. Again, this is a heavily male-dominated area where women have the chance to make a mark.
