entirely b&w collection of original, rough sketch, and some parody (rozen maiden, maria ga miteru .., jigoku shoujo) work. not all the subject matter appeals to me but I am attracted to mood and style of much of his work.

gorgeous, moody, and morbid .. almost all color images, in watercolors that bleed.  I love this collection.

one of kei garou's only commercial releases, to my knowledge.  a huge collection of work, which may include works featured in previous doujin releases.  I love his style and use of colors, and how he applies it to diverse subjects and settings.  well-worth the price and a good entry to his work.

vocaloid heavy, but lots of other images too.  I love his darker themed watercolo images best.

the touhou girls make pretty good subjects for kei also.  more dark, atmospheric, and eerie images.

after stalking YJ for a cheaper copy of this rozen maiden artbk, I found it at k-books in akihabara for a pretty good price.  this is one of my favorite kei artbks, with gorgeous and creepy images of the rozen dolls. he uses color to great effect to punctuate the generally dark images, especially with red.

I don't think this is kei's first rozen maiden work but if it's any indication, I need to find the older ones.  admittedly, dolls are a great subject for kei.  the dark images are deliciously cool and creepy, especially of suigintou.

kei's latest art collection. although not a major departure from anything that's come before, there seems to be more variety in the styles, from broad stroked, layered watercolors to some sharply outlined and minimally detailed work.
