MANILA, Philippines - Without formal training in art, Joey Velasco (photo) has moved Filipinos to tears with over a hundred of his artworks 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 shares the message of his pieces on Probe Profiles.

He looks back at how a life-threatening illness led him to become a full-time artist. Learn life’s lessons through the painter’s work on ANC tomorrow, 12 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. To view this and other episodes of Probe Profiles, log on to www.probetv.com.
