After graduation, he opened a San Francisco-based commercial art company with Louis Sawl and Paul Nyland. The company was in business for more than a half-century. Separate from his company, Seavey worked as a commercial artist for multiple magazines including ''The American Weekly''.

He is noted for his paintings of old, San Franciscan mansions and Victorian houses at night or in twilight. The Seavey family owned a four-story home in Pacific Heights.
