Artist and copper getting record in anxiety (10)
I believe the answer is:
sculptress
'artist' is the definition.
(sculptress is a kind of artist)
'copper getting record in anxiety' is the wordplay.
'copper' becomes 'cu' (chemical symbol).
'getting' says to put letters next to each other.
'record' becomes 'lp' (abbreviation for long play record).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'anxiety' becomes 'stress' (anxiety is stress or tension).
'cu'+'lp'='culp'
'culp' going within 'stress' is 'SCULPTRESS'.
'and' is the link.
(Another definition for sculptress that I've seen is " Woman who carves".)
