Penciller or inker, for comics (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

artist

(Other definitions for artist that I've seen before include "Constable, perhaps" , "One engaged in painting" , "Painter, sculptor etc" , "Skilled person" , "A painter, sculptor or other creative person" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
