Hello Khaya and welcome to the RPC!
You'll find plenty of artists down in the forums who you can share art with, doing commissions is a pretty reliable way to get some gil around these parts [when they can scrape enough together to spend.], people just love art.
I'm not very familiar with EU communities on Gilgamesh since I haven't spent much time there, but i'm sure if you took a look at the linkshell hall and followed up with the OOC hub linkshell I link below they could point you in the right direction.. anyroad, I have a few things i'd like to share.

This welcome post will give you a little overview of the RPC, mentioning a bit of history, what resources you have at your disposal and listing a few of the community key members. [Also as note Kylin has stepped down as Admin and FreelanceWizard has stepped up to take the role..] SO hopefully this will help you explore a bit more, I'm a big fan of the character wiki pages and the Lantern [an IC publication.]
You mentioned some MMO-RP experience [wooo~ WoW, I was on Steamwheedle Cartel mostly but I also had alts on Wyrmrest and Twisting Nether] But in case you'd like the opportunity to brush up on some RP terms, or maybe take a look at some Eorzea specific mechanics Eva has put together:

A wonderful compilation of information. You'll find a index hidden at the top in a spoiler tag that should help give you an idea of whats covered and skip over the parts you already feel firm in your knowledge of.
But onto the communities! For Gilgamesh there is a OOC RPer hub that brings people of all different types together from across the server called "Coalition"

This would be a great place for you to get your foot in the door and find some more EU centered groups to interact with.
If you ever hop onto Balmung there is a comparable OOC linkshell in "Intermission"

And an EU OOC linkshell "Europa"

Hope I haven't bored you to tears, please remember that this community is dedicated to supporting and getting roleplayers together, so ask any questions you might have, voice any concerns, dive into the forums and have a laugh.
Best of luck out in Eorzea,
