Artist, one with pull? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

drawer

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

'artist' is the definition.
(I know that drawer is a type of artist)

'one with pull?' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'er' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'pull?' becomes 'draw' ('draw' can be a synonym of 'pull').
'er' put after 'draw' is 'DRAWER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for drawer that I've seen before include "that's in a chest" , "Box in chest - one sketching?" , "Boxlike compartment in piece of furniture" , "One signing cheque" , "Reward (anag.)" .)
