White Rooster & Red Sun

A white rooster before the red sun, inspired by Japanese traditional painting.

This design was inspired by a rooster painting from Japanese traditional art, then reinterpreted as a tattoo piece.

Rather than building a complex background, I focused on the contrast between the ornate white feathers of the rooster and the simple, powerful red sun.

In East Asian imagery, the rooster has long been seen as an auspicious bird that announces the dawn and drives away negative energy.

Through its upright posture, flowing tail feathers, and repeated feather patterns, I wanted to capture the clear and striking presence of the rooster.
