Meet Mark J. Brady: The Creative Force Behind MJB Graphics

Mark J. Brady founded MJB-Graphics in 2006 with a mission to deliver exceptional visual art, photography, and digital services guided by his personal vision and high standards. His mantra, “good enough is just not good enough,” shapes his meticulous approach. With a photography background since the 1970s and a lifelong passion for art—inspired by his father, a draughtsman—Mark excels in photo restoration and digital image editing, reviving damaged images, and offers commissioned photography. Transitioning from traditional media like airbrush to digital art and 3D fractal art, he showcases his innovative creativity.


The Search for the Perfect Artist: A Journey of Its Own

Finding the right digital artist for Operation: Hollow Realm was no easy task—it turned into a journey of its own. My novel unfolds inside a hollow world, a concept that’s as imaginative as it is challenging to depict. I needed an artist who could not only master the technical aspects but also capture the essence of this otherworldly setting. To my surprise, conveying this vision proved incredibly difficult. I reached out to many talented artists, but most struggled to fully grasp the scene I had in mind. It was frustrating, but it made the discovery of Mark J. Brady all the more rewarding.


Mark was different. From our very first conversation, I could tell he got it. He didn’t just see a job—he saw the story. His ability to translate complex, high-concept ideas into stunning visuals set him apart. I knew instantly that he was the only one who could do justice to Operation: Hollow Realm. His artwork doesn’t just decorate; it immerses, it captivates, and it tells a story all on its own. With Mark on board, I’m confident that the cover will not only reflect the heart of my novel but also draw readers in from the very first glance.


What’s Next?

I’m counting down the days until I can share Mark’s incredible creation with you all. The cover of Operation: Hollow Realm is going to be something special—a visual gateway into the hollow world I’ve poured my heart into crafting. Stay tuned for the big reveal, and in the meantime, feel free to check out more of Mark’s work at MJB Graphics. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!

Thank you for joining me on this exciting step of the journey. I can’t wait to see where it takes us next!
