Default 1 inch farmer

Here's a mini farmer I did real quick this morning. He's a little under an inch. Carved him out of a little piece of pine I had, painted with acrylics. Don't have a story for this one though. Hope you like looking at him, I sure had fun carving him. Your comments are always welcome
