Med Affairs boss stars on ABC TV show

At the start of a sabbatical, it feels like anything’s possible. It’s a blank canvas, you might say. 

It certainly was for Medical Affairs Leader Jan Lewis, as you’ll see if you tune in to ABC TV, watching him paint Dannii Minogue.

Lewis left his role as Associate Medical Director at AbbVie last July for a career break and has dedicated much of his year off to portrait painting. He applied to enter the Portrait Artist of the Year competition, in which artists get four hours to paint portraits of Australian celebrities, under the TV lights and eagle eyes of art experts. And to his surprise, he qualified.
