The artistic visionary of Botanical Art,
Mami Ogata, is a Tokyo native who
has resided in Dallas since 1993.
Mami got an early start in her
connection to growing things having
spent many of her younger years
living in the Japanese country side
and by the ocean south of Tokyo.
She has always been aware of
having a keen attachment to nature
and studied to become a teacher in
the Sogetsu school of Japanese
flower arranging (ikebana). The
training, experience and
development of the ikebana
aesthetic is evident in Mami’s work,
effectively sculpture created from
flowers and natural materials.

Mami worked for 8 years in the floral design business before
starting her own company, Botanical Art, in 2003. She currently focuses on
special occasions, weddings and on transforming spaces into the visions of her
clients that meet their business or personal objectives

Mami is competently assisted by her husband JD Driscoll with a degree in
theatre and a resume including 7 years at the Dallas Theatre Center under
designer Eugene Lee and 6 more years with Dallas celebrity stage designer
Peter Wolfe. JD brings set design, lighting and construction expertise to the
business. Between the two of them, they can achieve just about anything a
client wants to do with flowers to create an environment

Mami can accommodate a broad range of floral design work, but is mostly
stimulated by avant guarde experimental designs and does not hesitate to
bring interesting lighting into the mix to create a desired effect, or to design
original containers of stone, bamboo or Plexiglas to set off her materials and
truly create original designs
for her clients. Mami thrives on the interaction with her clients and
the challenge of creating original designs with natural materials that invoke
the aura and mood her clients want to establish in their
space or at their event.
