I had a great conversation with woodturning and tattoo artist Rebecca DeGroot. We talked about the definition of functional art, teaching in the classroom and workshops, where Rebecca is going next, furniture as danger, and why everything is better with legs. Find Rebecca's woodworking on Instagram and also her tattoo art on Instagram.
This week our guest is the one and only Rebecca DeGroot and the topic is wood turning. This episode definitely has legs, lots of legs.
We went to a Houston area Meetup this week. And I forgot how much I love to be around like-minded people. Why should you meet people in person? Listen along and find out!

Rebecca started woodworking with her father at a very young age and continued to refine her skill through college. Six years after graduating with bachelor's degrees in Art Education and Sculpture and Functional Art, Rebecca divides her time between her full-time career as an art educator and her passion for woodworking. Her days of teaching Art 1, Sculpture, Ceramics, Jewelry, and AP 3D Studio Art are fulfilling and the passion she shares with her students is the same fuel that keeps her in her shop late into the evenings letting her imagination run wild.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/WoodturnersWorldwide)

Rebecca Degroot stops by MISTM HQ to chat about spiders, leather, and lathing. Okay to be fair. We talk about all that, she just kinda shakes her head in disapproval. Check out her insta! www.instagram.com/rebecca_degroot/
Rebecca DeGroot joins us in studio! and that studio is apparently crawling with spiders!!! Hear what happens when an incredibly talented and amazing teacher, maker, and artist navigates the gauntlet of all the nonsense we usually talk about. and as always - sorry.
