Inventive, artistic (8)
I believe the answer is:
creative
This clue is a double definition.
'inventive' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)
'artistic' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for creative that I've seen before include "Involving original ideas" , "Full of ideas" , "Showing imagination" , "Having the power to be original" , "Imaginative, artistic" .)
