[Ansteorra] looking for a bit of heraldic art...

[Pat Mullins]

I can probably draw this for you. As near as I can find, a catamount is just a big skinny cat (http://www.heraldsnet.org/saitou/parker/Jpglossc.htm). A couple of other notes... catamounts are always guardant and need not be blazoned as such (ibid, and http://www.burkes-peerage.net/articles/heraldry_c.aspx). Also, sejant erect would be sitting on its haunches with front paws raised, standing on both back legs with claws raised would be salient (http://www.rarebooks.nd.edu/digital/heraldry/charges/lions.html).
In service,
Paedric

black cat-a-mountain standing on both back legs, with claws raised, facing the 
viewer)

I've scoured every on line resource I can find...

Does anyone have any other suggestions, or is anyone a heraldic artist I could 
commission?  

I'm hoping to submit my husband's device to the college of heralds, but that 
one bit of artwork has proved challenging to find, and I can't draw worth a 
darn...

Many thanks in advance for any suggestions,
