The images on the website were originally created using a variety of media. Many are also available for purchase as fine art giclée prints and greeting cards or to commission an original work you can contact me directly at rod.shaw.art@icloud.com. Selected images are available as limited edition (LE) giclée prints produced at the same size as the original paintings. Other items from the archive are available on request.

The Gig Boat Series
Since 1990, The World Pilot Gig Championships have been held every year on the Isles of Scilly on the first spring bank holiday in May. Starting with 20 boats in 1990, there are now regularly over 150. This is gig rowing on an immense scale, for rowers and spectators alike. Between races, the boats are hauled up on to the beaches in rows. Arriving on the Skybus, this series of abstract prints is inspired by the time I was there in May 2023.
