The definition of an artist is wide-ranging and covers a broad spectrum of activities to do with creating art, practicing the arts and/or demonstrating an art. The common usage in both everyday speech and academic discourse is a practitioner in the visual arts only. The term is often used in the entertainment business, especially in a business context, for musicians and other performers (less often for actors). "Artiste" (the French for artist) is a variant used in English only in this context. Use of the term to describe writers, for example, is certainly valid, but less common, and mostly restricted to contexts like criticism.

Which artists use mirrors as a medium in their work?
Q. I've been trying to find out the names of any artists that actually use mirror as part of their work, such as painting on them etc. All I can find are artists that paint pictures of mirrors! Any names or images would be greatly appreciated. Oh, and preferably the mirror images would be self portraits. Thanks!

What are some bluegrass artists to check out?
Q. I've already listened to Ricky Skaggs, Rhonda Vincent and Bradley Walker. Are there any other bluegrass artists that I should check out? Also, if you can group all of the newer artists together and all of the older artists together, I'd appreciate it! BQ: What's your favorite Ricky Skaggs song? Right now, mine is "Brand New Strings," which features great acoustic guitar work by Cody Kilby as well as great electric guitar work by Johnny Hiland.
