Meet brilliant artist/illustrator/cartoonist and recovering drug addict, Joey Feldman, who tells the harrowing story of how he went from a hopeless, desperate addict on his hands and knees sniffing carpeting for a high – to one of the nation's hottest painters!

Bravely holding nothing back, Joey (now many years sober), artfully takes us on a jaw dropping journey through his addiction hell. And he reveals the one regret that still brings him to tears.

Joey's life story is as inspirational and powerful as the very art he creates – illustrating the beauty and resilience of the human spirit.
