Agave Harvest
The mural at Kalaka Mexican Kitchen depicts an agave field during harvest from the Jalisco Region in Mexico. A couple of piñas are in view after a skilled jimador uses the coa de jima to trim the leaves from the sugar rich core that is used to make tequila.
In this mural, Jonathan wanted to bring focus to the tradition of fine tequila making, and the biggest challenge was to capture the spiral of the agave in oneLINE that never crosses or intersects. This mural took 3 days to paint and several rounds of practice concept pieces to work out the contour line.
