Support women dumped by deceitful type (5)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
easel
'support' is the definition.
(easel is a kind of support)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for easel that I've seen before include "Blackboard-frame" , "Artist's stand for painting" , "Painter's stand" , "Stand used by artists" , "artist's requisite" .)
