Naive, artless (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ingenuous

I believe this is a double definition.

'naive' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'artless' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for ingenuous that I've seen before include "lacking sophistication" , "green" , "Naive" , "Frank" , "Innocent, unsuspecting" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
