Rachel Johnson
Ikebana Artist | Educator

With a background in shiatsu, teaching, and visual design, Ikebana struck many chords with me. What began as a gardener’s creative outlet, became an artistic discipline, and a lifelong path of learning.

My studies in Sogetsu ikebana began over twenty years ago and I have been teaching classes since 2010. I maintain active membership in the Sogetsu Teachers' Association and hold the rank of Riji. In the San Francisco Bay Area, I regularly exhibit at the deYoung and Asian Art Museums, and organize workshops for Soho Study Group members.

Increasingly I have been invited to share my love for ikebana in community settings such as San Francisco libraries, SCRAP, Asian Art Museum

My work spans a diverse range of projects, and I’m always open to try new things! Please contact me to chat about an idea.
