Storyteller's Journey

Livvi Biddle Art!

One of the most enjoyable parts of being an author, as well as a small publisher, is working with my illustrator-husband, fine artist, Michael Lindstrom. Here are a few images for the cover art and upcoming book trailer for my MG fantasy novel: A Vigil in Venice.

In each of the novels of my seven-book middle grade fantasy series, The Time Travel Tales of Livvi Biddle, the protagonist goes back in time and meets an iconic historical figure. In Book 3 - A Vigil in Venice, that figure is Antonio Vivaldi. Since the "Red Priest" was not only a famous composer, but a violin virtuoso, this image will work well in the video book trailer. (All images copyright, Michael Lindstrom Art.)

This image will also work well for the book trailer. The Campanile, or bell tower, in the background beyond a small canal, is an icon in St. Mark's Square. It was completed over 150 years before the birth of Vivaldi. (The top image will be the insert art for my upcoming book. See the previous book covers on right.)

Stay tuned for more updates, including the book trailer!
