I'll just note here that while for the most part sex -does- sell, I get far less requests for adult commissions, and my adult pieces actually get less attention. Don't get me wrong, I do prefer clean-to-nude art, but I'm surprised that even offering adult commissions I don't get takers. [Granted I have very little adult art in my gallery, but that's aside from the point, as I know other clean artists who get bothered for adult art].
You -can- actually make a decent start on FA with little to no adult art, I have less than 10 pieces in almost 300 that are adult in nature, I've been on my page just over a year, and have 11k pageviews and almost 1k watchers. Advertising is extremely useful.
Another thing that may be of assistence, but is very difficult for some artists, is to have a high rate of turnover. Full body flats are my best seller, and I can generally turn those out in a couple of days, real life willing, usually within a week.
