Give account of art near complex (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

narrate

'give account of' is the definition.

'art near complex' is the wordplay.
'complex' indicates an anagram.
'art'+'near'='artnear'
'artnear' is an anagram of 'NARRATE'.

(Other definitions for narrate that I've seen before include "'Recount, tell (7)'" , "Relate - portray" , "Give a spoken account" , "Tell story,recount" , "Tell a story, recite" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
