French artist dealing with colour in France (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

renoir

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

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

'dealing with colour in france' is the wordplay.
'dealing with' becomes 're' (regarding).
'colour in france' becomes 'noir' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
're'+'noir'='RENOIR'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for renoir that I've seen before include "Jean -, Fr. film director, son of painter" , "French artist" , "film maker" , "'No, I err, he was a painter (6)'" , "Pierre-Auguste -, French Impressionist painter" .)
