artisan

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a master of his craft' is the definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'sinatra when performing' is the wordplay.
'when performing' indicates anagramming the letters (the letters move around or 'perform').
'sinatra' is an anagram of 'ARTISAN'.

Can you help me to learn more?
