not to sound contradictory to what your trying to say, but in game development... programming is necessary. Unless you want a cookie cutter game made with the same templates everyone else uses your going to need to:
A - Learn to program and be a lone wolf with a small project
B - Look for a programmer willing to help you compensation or not or whatever you work out
C - Hop on a team as an artist that already has a programmer

There is no way around it.

EDIT: outside of all that, I wish you the best of luck in wherever you decide to go with it.
