Rachel
Znerold

Growing up in the Colorado countryside, Rachel Znerold knew early on that she was different—she saw dazzling beauty in decomposing logs and scrawled wild designs on her sneakers. Now, as a painter, one-of-a-kind eco-fashion designer, performance artist and writer, Rachel makes her life out of making art.

With a degree in Fine Art and Advertising from The University of Colorado in Boulder, she became a resident artist at Rembrandt Yard, and taught painting, fashion design, and performance at Horizons Alternative, The September School and the University of Colorado at Boulder.

After traveling to New Zealand and Mexico to complete commissioned mural projects, Rachel up and moved to San Francisco on a wild whim. Now a member of the Mission District's vibrant art scene, Rachel’s work has show at Wonderland Gallery, 111 Minna, Secession Art & Design, and she has performed at San Francisco venues like the Rickshaw Stop, The Box Factory and at Yerba Buena Night Out. Rachel is also an excellent high-kicker and is passionate about using art to build strong community and a culture of social activism. www.rachelzart.com
