Surrealist painter creating some scandal inevitably (4)
I believe the answer is:
dali
'surrealist painter' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'some scandal inevitably' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some of the parts of the word are used).
'DALI' is hidden within 'scandal inevitably'.
'creating' is the link.
(Other definitions for dali that I've seen before include "Controversial painter" , "Surrealist Spanish painter, d. 1989" , "Tree" , "Salvador -, twentieth century artist" , "Salvador among artists" .)
