ARTIST OR ARTISTE?

Do you know the difference between an artist and an artiste?

Many people use these terms interchangeably, but they have unique meanings. Let’s dive in!

An "artist" refers to someone who creates art, such as paintings, illustrations, or musical compositions.
For example:

In contrast, an "artiste" is a performer, including singers, dancers, or actors.
For instance:
