Blue Tapp is an author, artist, photographer, musician, videographer & podcaster with AA Fine Arts, BA in English, MA in English Literature & PhD coursework in Rhetoric & Composition. She has run her own website development company, Blue’s ArtHouse Graphics & Web Design, since 1997.

Blue's artistic vision emerges from her own story of struggle with suicidal depression, addiction and an emotionally abusive childhood home. As a young adult, she attempted suicide by swallowing a handful of sleeping pills. Her spirit left her body before she was brought back to life in the hospital. Blue is alive today because God miraculously saved her life. Four angels appeared and helped her call for help before she died.

Since then, Blue has been miraculously healed from depression and addiction. She has discovered the marvelous joy of living in deep relationship with Jesus and He has blessed her with glorious visions of heaven and messages of how deep is God's love for us. Her memoir, "My Demon, My Jesus," is an international best seller available on Amazon. Her podcast, “Join Hands With Heaven with Blue Tapp” reaches followers around the globe.

Blue's Nail-Pierced Hand acrylic paintings feature stylized depictions of the nail-pierced hand of Jesus Christ. Each painting is poignantly paired with Scripture, inviting viewers to reflect upon Christ’s constant presence in our lives. Blue’s paintings tell stories of Jesus’ love for us, His healing powers, and His relentless pursuit of our hearts. His pierced open hand beckons us to follow Him, and invites us to place our own hands within His protective grasp. Blue’s vibrant colors radiate from her canvases in brilliant visual reminders of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ that offers us salvation.

Blue and her husband live and homestead in Blue Eye, Missouri, where they raise chickens, ducks, quail, rabbits, goats and sheep and grow their own food. Follow their homesteading adventures at hermitsway.com.
