Speaking to the BBC, Wood said: "As an artist and art lover, I am devoted to the human form.
"I have had the privilege and excitement of standing in the wings of the Royal Ballet and sketching Britain's premiere ballet dancers.
"The precision of physical movement of these dancers is mesmerising."
Wood's painting is one of more than 30 works to go up for auction at the Royal Academy of Arts.
