Art nicely surreal? Yes! (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

certainly

'yes' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'art nicely surreal?' is the wordplay.
'surreal?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'surreal' mean this).
'art'+'nicely'='artnicely'
'artnicely' is an anagram of 'CERTAINLY'.

(Other definitions for certainly that I've seen before include "Without doubt" , "By all means" , "Definitely, surely" , "Definitely, positively" , "Thirty seven [37D=WITHOUT FAIL]" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
