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 normal meaning 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.

What artist has drawings of a fantasy story that is about to happen?
Q. I'm finding it hard to explain. He is famous for these drawings of for example: these kids are in a boat and a huge castle is seen riding on a cloud in the far distance. Also a bird or something that is part of the wallpaper is peeling itself off the wall to fly away. Who is this artist? I'm sure he is from this century. Not sure what country. I believe almost all of his drawings are in black and white.

What artist book and/or publication do you feel is the best at teaching the fundamentals of drawing?
Q. I ask this question as i have been approached many times on schools and books, while doing street portraits. I am an accomplished artist on basics, though my range of art genre is limited. Many teachers approach me on this subject matter. I know this is somewhat naive, but i feel drawing is more of a discipline, than an art. Thank You!

A. "How to draw the Marvel way," by Stan Lee, taught me quite a bit, even though it is somewhat short on perspective. There is that guy (Steve somebody maybe?) who wrote the book "Pyramid," "Castle," "Cathedral," "Subway," and so on, it is at least extremely inspirational. Comic book stores and bookstores tend to have exactly what people are looking for in this regard. Libraries are sometimes good, except people like to steal the books. At the flea market I bought "Perspective Drawing," by Ernest Norling. Bound in the fifties or sixties, and originally sold for only one dollar. Now that's art instruction I'd say, golly. I suppose I would be remiss if I didn't at least mention "How To Draw Like M.C. Escher," and "How to Draw Like H.R.… [cont.]

Art is the process or product of deliberately arranging elements in a way that appeals to the senses or emotions. It encompasses a diverse range of human activities, creations, and modes of expression, including music and literature. The meaning of art is explored in a branch of philosophy known as aesthetics.
