Default Whittled hillbilly
Here's a little sumthing I carved today just to take a break from the owl I've been working on. It's carved from a little piece of pine I had laying around. I'll probably carve the rest of his body tomorrow depending how I'm feeling, Hope you like looking at this little guy

I always like to take a break and carve something small like that whenever I'm working on a big project. It kinda clears your head.
