Rolled turf makes a picture (5)

I believe the answer is:

draws

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

'makes a picture' is the definition.
'draws' can be an answer for 'makes' ('draw' can be a synonym of 'make'). I am not sure about the 'a picture' bit.

'rolled turf' is the wordplay.
'rolled' says the letters should be written in reverse (letters roll back).
'turf' becomes 'sward' (synonyms).
'sward' reversed gives 'DRAWS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for draws that I've seen before include "Pulls" , "Raffles" , "lugs" , "proves alluring" , "Match results without winners" .)
