I found a few typos in artists.rst. Added a patch (don't want to commit
it, because I'm not actively working on the docs)
The first sentence of the section "Object containers" also needs to be
fixed (or I don't understand it):
"Now that we know how to inspect set the properties of a given object
we want to configure, we need to now how to get at that object."
"inspect" or "set" ???
