Welcome to my latest cat pencil drawing of Mungo. My client Charlotte emailed me to ask if I would be able to draw their beautiful cat called Mungo. Charlotte emailed the following…
Hi Melanie,
I am based in Hong Kong, and my first year wedding anniversary is approaching. I was hoping to get my husband Bill, a portrait of our darling kitten, Mungo. Would you have the time to be able to undertake this piece? The size I was thinking is 14 x 11 inches…..
Charlotte
The portrait was going to be kept a secret until it was presented to Charlottes husband on their 1st wedding anniversary. The 1st anniversary is a popular choice for my pencil drawings as its Paper!
Charlotte took some wonderful photos of Mungo. In fact she was very patient with me asking for lots of new photos! I had Charlotte taking photos over a period of time to get the perfect photo of him for a portrait. The lighting was great and it picked up all of his markings beautifully.

The scan doesn’t do the portrait justice, but hopefully it will give you a good idea of what the final drawing was like. Charlotte emailed me when she received the final scan which you can read below. It headed off to Hong Kong to it’s owner and recipient. I hope they enjoyed their 1st wedding anniversary too!
Hi Melanie,
Thank you so much for your email, and confirmation that the portrait is done, in super quick time! Your portrait of Mungo is absolutely gorgeous, and it also captures him perfectly. I am thrilled. If the original is even better, wow! I can’t wait to surprise Bill with this! Thank you very much once again, especially for the quick turnaround.
Best regards,
Charlotte
I hope that you have enjoyed reading about my Cat Pencil Drawing of Mungo. If you have a cat similar to Mungo that you might like drawn, you are more than welcome to send me photos and we can discuss your option. Similar to Charlotte, take as many good quality, clear and in focus photos that you can. Especially where cats are concerned as they aren’t as easy to tell to sit still than a dog. So having your camera on hand over a few weeks can produce some wonderful photos. it will also produce some awful ones, but that the fun of it! I cant wait to see them! You might want to take a look at the cat portrait of Poppy too, it is a slightly different style of portrait being a head study. it might give you ideas for your own portrait.
