I've always thought about it...
Oh my gosh you don't have to go to art school to be a good artist!

You just lack confidence. Don't compare your artwork to anyone else. That's a big no no.

Look around and see if there is an artisins Guild in your area. It is a shop for local artists where you display your artwork for sale or you could also rent a space at an art show during the summer months. craft fairs are also a good idea as long as you don't price your paintings too high.

Once you sell a few paintings you'll realize that you're not as bad as you think you are! and no its not over your head.
