His work is characterized by an exceptionally detailed naturalistic approach and a unique use of Humbrol enamel paints, more commonly associated with model aircraft painting. Shaw gained recognition for his depictions of the suburbs where he grew up, and his art often explores themes tied to the English provincial landscape. Beyond painting, he also engages in writing, as evidenced by his short story 'The Necromantic'.
