I'm gonna be like him

Description

A little image - of Gus, Brian's son from Queer as Folk - that popped into my head on the way to my artschool's library today.

" A child arrived just the other day,
He came to the world in the usual way.
But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay.
He learned to walk while I was away.
And he was talking 'fore I knew it, and as he grew,
He'd say, "I'm gonna be like you, dad.
You know I'm gonna be like you.""


~ Cats in the Cradle, Harry Chapin

P.S.: Yeah, the highlights on the leather jacket suck but hey, at least the jeans looks good XD

"Cats in the Cradle" - I guess I'm just an old soft-hearted sap.  I choke up when I try to sing that.  I guess, even at age 59, I love my dad, even though he's gone.

I love all the little touches in this.  Nicely done.
