The error in the sentence is the incorrect verb conjugation. The correct sentence is "Ella es artística."

To identify the error, we need to understand the subject-verb agreement in Spanish. In this case, "ella" is the subject, which is a singular third-person pronoun. The verb "ser" (to be) should be conjugated as "es" instead of "soy." "Es" is the correct form of the verb to match the subject "ella."

To avoid this error, it's important to remember that verb conjugations in Spanish change depending on the subject, including pronouns like "yo" (I), "tú" (you), "él/ella/usted" (he/she/you formal), etc.
