Person who pretends to be another painter (13)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

impressionist

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'person who pretends to be another' is the first definition.
'impressionist' can be an answer for 'person' (impressionist is a kind of person). I'm unsure of the rest of the definition.

'painter' is the second definition.
(I know that impressionist is a type of painter)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for impressionist that I've seen before include "Is he taking off" , "one good at doing copies?" , "One who takes off others" , "Mimic" , "artist?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
