100 dollars is nothing. You don't really need to test if it's possible. It's like testing if it's possible to make 100 dollars from carpentry, or any profession.
to put it in perspective also, if you are a graphic designer and you're hired to design the mascot, logo, or marketing materials for a company, you're looking at probably 500 to thousands of dollars, depending on size of the company. not a hundred. Unless it's like a small town bar that gets their friend to do it for basically nothing or something like that. They might not need your services again, but someone else will. All this to say, that art is a real profession that people make money doing. The reason it is worth so much is because it's a special skill, and it also takes a lot of time. In the fine art world, drawings are purchased because of their beauty, and the price reflects the artist's reputation, and how good the drawing is perceived to be. So it's not a simple utilitarian transaction where you need a drawing, so you get just anyone to do it, or do it yourself.
