About Danita Brooks...
it's nice to meet you.

I am a cross between an impressionist and realist painter and portrait artist based in Jacksonville, Florida. In addition to being an artist (and more importantly) I am a wife, a mom of three, and a dog mom.

Life is busy. I paint to feed my soul and as a reminder to pause and look at the beauty God made for us to enjoy.

My goal is to create images for you that reflect fun, memories, movement, and joy (with a few historically or nerdy facts throw into the mix).

As a left and right-brained creative, I experiment with many different methods painting mainly in oils, acrylics, watercolor, and occasionally mixing my photography with painting. 

You can also find my work as a web/brand designer helping others with their creative strategies at Design Kangaroo —a design agency I started with my daughter Gabby who is an amazing social media marketer.

I’m honored you are here—take a look around, see the latest works as I create them, and join me behind the scenes on Instagram.
