Do it! I would.

Vianna,

If it a way to supplement your income, why not? You are just doing a commercial art job, it would not in any way be mistaken for your work.

The economy is tough out there and from what I am reading, only going to get tougher.

I have done work for discount department stores, toy companies, restaurants, etc. to make a living. I in no way confused this with fine art. If you can make a decent amount of money in a relatively reasonable amount of time, it might be worth your while.

You are a very talented artist, save your energy for the work that is important to you and worth doing. This might help.

This was a time honored tradition in the rural areas of the Midwest, photographing people and painting oven the photographs. I wasn't art then and it ain't now.
