One responsible for a holdup in picture production? (5)
I believe the answer is:
easel
'production?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for easel that I've seen before include "board support" , "supporter of the arts" , "Artist's tripod" , "Painter's frame" , "Board stanchion" .)
