1. Someone who indulges in the arts, don't talk about it much, have been interested in the general perception of "art" for a long time. They often don't feel the need to show off, and to be "artsy" someone else usually says so, because they would never refer to themselves as such. Usually wears a certain style of clothes, normally something seen as "indie" or "classy" (dress shirts and other formal attire for non-formal occasions) but doesn't think the following when he/she buys said attire:
"Will I look artsy enough" or "People will totally think I'm artsy when I buy this"
2. Basically the same thing only with a different mind set. Normally pretentious, meaningless and just used as another way to impress friends and other peers. They often only started once they got into junior high/high school, once they are exposed to the social climate and become self conscious. Basically, someone who thinks that they are cool because they can do an amateur impression of a joker and are in all the school plays. Someone who sees themselves as a nonconformist, when really they are conforming by being "artsy" or "indie". Also a hippie, who probably cares nothing about the environment or the starving children in Africa, but merely say so (despite not understanding anything about politics) because everyone else "does" and because they grew up in a bad, smelly environment. Normally listens to reggae and other hippie/artsy/indie songs to keep up their image. Also tends to break up into an even worse version of a song from said genres. When buying clothes they do think:
"Will I look artsy enough" or "People will totally think I'm artsy when I buy this"
Basically every single person in every junior high in Davis, California.
"Will I look artsy enough" or "People will totally think I'm artsy when I buy this"

Artsie refers to a group of university students who study arts or sciences. These students are inferior to Engineering students. The exception to this rule is:
students in Chemical Engineering are sometimes also referred to artsies by their engineering brethren.
We can see an artsie based on how tired he or she looks. It is common that these breeze through a degree students never look tired, since they never have to do any real work, or actually study a useful topic.

Another way of saying horny. More commonly used in the artistic, theatre crowd. Often used in the darkness of backstage during late night rehearsals, when everyone is tired and laying on top of each other. Mostly used as a joke, or to inadvertently say you're really attracted to someone or a group.

an adjective used by many art students to describe their slutty behavior. Usually used in the context of nude pictures or slutty actions. It is a synonym for "slutty" and used to make slutty girls feel better about their actions.
"That picture isn't slutty, it's artsy!" (when referring to nude pictures being taken of a girl with tattoos that is obviously being used for non pure personal indulgences similar to that of playboy)

Not necessarily a person that indulges in artistic activities.
Artsy people may wear lots of brown, orange, and sometime dirty clothes; They can occasionally be referred to as "fugly" or "bitch", although not all artsy people are fugly or bitches.

Kid1: Check out that artsy girl over there!
Kid2: I think fugly is a better word for her.
Kid1: Yeah, you're right. I guess her ugly brown clothes just covered up her filth and repulsiveness.
