Jake Wood - Sir David Attenborough
Jake Wood – Sir David Attenborough – Mixed Media on Canvas – 100cm x 100cm - framed in white
A striking original mixed media work by Jake Wood, celebrating one of Britain’s most loved and respected cultural icons, Sir David Attenborough.
This vibrant portrait captures Attenborough seated in a regal chair, surrounded by lush tropical foliage, butterflies, and wildlife references that reflect his lifelong dedication to nature, conservation, and the natural world. The Union Jack subtly anchors the composition, reinforcing his place as a true British icon, while the young gorilla at his side symbolises both vulnerability and the urgent need for protection of endangered species.
Jake’s signature layered approach combines bold colour, expressive texture, and street-art influences with portraiture, creating a work that feels both contemporary and emotionally resonant. The rich green tones evoke life, growth, and environmental consciousness, while the energetic drips and splashes bring movement and modernity to the piece.
Part of the celebrated Icon Series, this original artwork honours not just the public figure, but the legacy of a man whose voice and work have shaped generations.
