I looked it up in the dictionary.com. Seems you need to use nor.

回答: no, "neither is an artist" is correct. 由 xj 于 2006-1-12, 16:31:51:

Usage Note:

When using neither in a balanced construction that negates two parts of a sentence, nor (not or) must be used in the second clause:
She is neither able nor (not or) willing to go.

Similarly, when negating the second of two negative independent clauses, nor (not or) must be used:
He cannot find anyone now, nor does he expect to find anyone in the future;
Jane will never compromise with Bill, nor will Bill compromise with Jane.

Note that in these constructions, nor causes an inversion of the auxiliary verb and the subject (does he... will Bill...).
