Having trouble with parsing 18a, which I suspect is painter:

18a Boatman's line one's used to drawing (7)
P-I-T-R

Thanks in advance

I think it's just a triple definition - painter being a boatman, a line/rope and someone who is used to drawing.

yes - the painter is the name of the rope used for mooring small boats - viz. swallows and amazons!
