Anh's Brush with Fame, also known as Anh Do's Brush With Fame, is an Australian television series, first broadcast on the ABC starting 24 August 2016. The program features comedian Anh Do painting a portrait of a celebrity while interviewing his subject.[1]

The celebrities to feature in the inaugural season included Amanda Keller, Jimmy Barnes, Magda Szubanski, Craig McLachlan and Anthony Mundine.[2] The program was renewed for a second season of 10 episodes which aired from 12 April 2017, with singer Jessica Mauboy featured in the first episode.[3] The series 2 finale, featuring Samuel Johnson, was filmed after the initial 10 episodes had been completed and therefore not included in the series 2 DVD set.[4]

Do is an accomplished artist, having won art prizes previously[5] and been a finalist in the prestigious Archibald Prize.[1]
