About Michael Albaño / Batang Pinangga
Michael Albano: An Artist with an Extraordinary Journey
Michael Albano is a talented painter and artist with an inspiring life story. As a young child, Michael ended up living on the streets of the Philippines, a harsh and uncertain environment where he was unable to simply be a child. His life took a transformative turn when he was welcomed into Batang Pinangga, a children's home that provides care for abused, neglected, and mistreated children.
At Batang Pinangga, Michael found not only a safe haven but also the opportunity to finally attend school. It was there that his artistic talents quickly came to light. With pencils and brushes in hand, he spent countless hours coloring, drawing, and painting. His passion for art and his innate talent were undeniable.
After graduating from high school, Michael had the chance to pursue his dream: studying at the art academy in Cebu. This was made possible thanks to support from sponsors in the Netherlands. Today, Michael is a graduate and creates stunning paintings that reflect his unique style and powerful life journey.
By purchasing one of Michael’s paintings, you are not only supporting his work as an artist but also helping sustain Batang Pinangga. A significant portion of the proceeds goes directly to the children’s home, ensuring that more children, like Michael, can have a chance at a brighter future.
