Dan Young Kim's mural of a large rooster occupied almost the entire wall of the apartment building. The rooster appeared to stand on a white board attached horizontally to the side of the building.

The credits for the mural were painted on a board attached to the chain link fence just to the lower right of the mural. It read:

The rooster's tail feathers extended below the white board and rested atop the asphalt of the parking lot. The feathers were painted using careful details.

A drawing, inside the circle in the upper left corner of the mural, showed a person seated in what was perhaps snow or fog, and warming hands over a crackling warm fire.

The rooster's feet appeared to stand on the white board. Up close, it was clear that the feet were instead painted over the lip of the board.

The rooster's head was painted in respectful detail. It comb, beak, eye, wattle and hackle were painted in precise detail in front of a white and gray designed background.
