Partner's painting (3)
I believe the answer is:
art
'painting' is the definition.
(painting is an art)
'partner's' is the wordplay.
'ART' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I'm unsure how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for art that I've seen before include "Trickery" , "For example, Blakey's creative" , "Cunning" , "A name" , "Eg, paintings, sculpture" .)
