I am currently offering pencil samplers for $10, and was reminded of a post by Karin Wells at

These sketches are the product of doing all night graduation parties where I draw about eight drawings an hour. They are free to the kids, and they line right up and get it done. I am paid for the evening, usually about $75 an hour.
I am having a bit of success with this product at my mall studio during this slow time of year. They take about seven minutes to complete, and are a real crowd pleaser.
I can make $60 an hour with this product, which, if compared to the other products I offer, is not as good a money maker during the busiest season. So I only offer it during the slower season. But when it is slow, it works.
I charge $45 for a charcoal which takes only about ten minutes, and $65 for pastels which take about 20 minutes. Do you think it is unprofessional to offer this kind of product?
