Crossword Genius

Note painter making an entrance (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

penetration

'an entrance' is the definition.
(I know that penetration is a type of entrance)

'note painter making' is the wordplay.
'making' is an anagram indicator.
'note'+'painter'='notepainter'
'notepainter' with letters rearranged gives 'PENETRATION'.

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
