Whose artwork is this?

This is my most recent illustration work. My name is Brian Garvey. I do drawings and paintings and all kinds of creative projects. I’m interested in comics and sequential art and would like to someday make a graphic novel. In the meantime, I’ve put together a cute little mini-comic which you can check out here.→

What does Sengarden mean?

"Sen" is a tag I used to write in my sketchbooks. I googled "shrine" and one of the results was senja fuda, which is a Japanese shrine where you write little prayers and place them on the walls. I thought that was a good analog to graffiti and plus I was interested in zen buddhist philosophy.

Sen also appears in such words as "sentience", "sense", and also just happens to be the name given to Chihiro in Spirited Away (great Miyazaki movie).

I decided to incorporate SEN with "zen garden," the careful composition of elements to be looked at for aesthetic pleasure. Zen garden → SENgarden. And there you have it, that's why my website is called SENgarden.
