Painter's studio (7)
I believe the answer is:
atelier
'painter's studio' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for atelier that I've seen before include "I relate to workshop used by artist" , "room for artist" , "Artist's workroom" , "Artist's workshop, studio" , "Tie earl up in the artist's place" .)
