Which is the best program for that in tandem with python?
Not sure. I know a lot of people use Tiled for tilesets and Asperite is very popular for pixel art.

So from knowing nothing about python let alone programming, what are realistic job opportunities with this?
Python is popular because it's a really good start to learning programming, and from there it's easier to pick up other languages like HTML, CSS, C#, C++, Ruby, Javascript, etc. You can also work with Flask/Django which aren't programming languages but web frameworks, which is popular for Back-End Developers and Data Analysts. You could learn game development, learn how to create websites (front end dev) or maintaining databases (back end dev) or both (full stack dev), you could become a data analyst, a data scientist, a data engineer, a software developer. You could think of a really neat/unique app and become a mobile app developer. It mostly depends on where your interests are.

For starters, begin learning Python. Once you start to get the hang of things, make simple games. Like rock, paper, scissors. Ask yourself how you think someone sitting on their computer would play the game. For me, the first thing would be a welcoming message and a brief explanation of the game. To do that you would just do a simple print function. Then you'd need the player to input either rock, paper or scissors. To do that it's another simple function: the input function, which allows someone to input a command. After that you would need to write some more code that tells the computer to do X when the player types out X, which you could do with an if statement. And so on, and so on until you complete the game. After you do that, you can take your code to the next level and import other modules that could allow you to, instead of playing rock paper scissors in a terminal, allow you to create a GUI where you press buttons. So you go from version 1 of the game, to version 2. And yes you will spend a lot of time searching how to do stuff like that, but that's how you learn effectively.

Read this thread I just saw about Data Analysts and see if it interests you.

And this is a good read as well.
