Robert,
Have you started getting commissions for portraits on a regular basis? Get your work out there to be seen by people and as you find yourself becoming busy with commissions leaving the corporate world will be a natural progression. One of the common denominators that I hear over and over again on the artist's journey is "perserverence". Be an excellent artist and don't give up.
I have a book published by North Light Books, it is entitled "Being An Artist" by Lewis Lehrman. Twenty artists share their journeys to becoming successful artists. Some of their stories will inspire you and may give you ideas.
Mary
