Probe Profiles: Joey Velasco Part 1

Without any formal training in art, he has moved Filipinos to tears with
over a hundred of his artwork that include an unconventional Last Supper
scene, Hapag ng Pag-asa, where Jesus dines with street children.

Drawing strength and inspiration from his own life, Joey Velasco shares
the message of his pieces this Wednesday on Probe Profiles.

Velasco, a businessman by profession, looks back at how a life-threatening
illness led him to become a full-time artist. His family and closest
friends, including TV personality and fellow ex-seminarian Kim Atienza,
describe how his physical condition turned out to be life-changing as
well.

Learn lifes lessons through the painters work on February 10, Wednesday,
after Bandila on ABS-CBN. Catch the shows replays on ANC every Thursday
at 6:00 p.m. and every Saturday at 12 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. To view this and
