Kiki & Coco (9” x 12”)
‘Molly what can I say… My dad absolutely loves it and oh my god the way it looks in the frame! He’s putting it on the wall as we speak, gave me a big love, and said thank you. Molly, he said to me I don’t know how much you’ve paid for this but just tell her it’s worth every penny. The detail you put into everything you do is so perfect.’
- Clare, UK
Daisy (7” x 5”)
‘Molly is absolutely amazing! Today I’ve received a beautifully drawn portrait of my dog Daisy which I love so much. Molly has been fantastic from start to finish, the communication has been great, she helped me choose a good photo and has been so friendly that I’ll actually miss our conversations now. Thank you so much Molly xx’
- Harriet, UK
Archie (9” x 12”)
‘Molly is AMAZING!! I worked with Molly a few years back, and when I found out she was leaving to do her art full time I knew she was special from some of the pieces I’d seen.
Fast forward a few years and when my mum and I needed a present for my dad for Christmas I knew just what he’d like, a portrait of Archie 🐶💛 Molly was so professional and answered my questions super quick. Kept me informed of every stage of the drawing and when it was completed. I didn’t see the portrait until the day my dad had the present, so it was a huge surprise for us all! My dad couldn’t believe that it had been hand-drawn and let alone with pencils!! He was totally amazed at the level of detail that Molly had gotten from the colour of his ears and shoulders, the pose, absolutely everything! He loves it and so does my mum too!! Thank you so much Molly you are truly talented!’
- Emma, UK
Bu (9“ x 12”)
‘This talented amazing lady is in a league of her own. Totally professional from start to finish, nothing was too much effort or trouble, and the service provided is just truly amazing... commissioned a drawing for my sisters special birthday, and to say she was blown away doesn’t even come close. Molly Jay thank you so much, the little surprises and gifts that you add to your packages are the icing on the cake, you really are something special. I can’t wait to order my next commission!’
- Michelle, UK
Vinnie (7” x 10”)
‘Just wanted to give you a massive thank you for the drawing you did of 'Vinnie'. My daughter is absolutely over the moon, it just shows his personality perfectly. It is now in pride of place so everyone can see it. Get your pencils sharpened Molly as this won’t be the last you hear from us.
Thank you once again. Nadine, Ellis and of course Vinnie xxxxx’

Roscoe (7” x 5”)
‘I am absolutely in love with the drawing I had done for my partners 30th. The detail is just beautiful and beyond what I ever expected. From the ordering to receiving the drawing the service from Molly was exceptional, making sure everything was exactly how I needed it to be and regularly checked in with me to keep me updated. The drawing alone was beautiful however the way the drawing was presented and gift wrapped was absolutely stunning. The attention to detail that Molly puts in not only to the picture but every concept of my order and I cannot thank her enough for capturing Roscoe at his best. Thank you so much again for creating this beautiful picture. I will definitely be using Molly again! Much love x’

George & Charlie (10” x 14”)
“What can I say about Molly Jay... We had been observing Molly create some fantastic portraits and illustrations over a few months which is why we decided to commission her to draw a pet portrait of our Yorkshire Terriers George & Charlie. We were so excited when Molly told us it was finished, in-fact so excited we drove straight round to collect it. Well... when we got it home and unwrapped the portrait, we couldn't believe our eyes; the attention to detail in the facial expressions, the eyes, and the colouring of the hair on the dogs was incredible and certainly brought a few tears to my eyes. The portrait looks just like a photograph and it's hard to believe that every single detail has been drawn in pencil but that's exactly what makes it so very worthwhile. All the hard work is very much appreciated and a gift for life. Thank you so much Molly, Love Andy & Karen xx”
- Karen, UK
Special Robin (10” x 10”)
“Firstly, I must say what an amazing, talented, young lady Molly is. She has captured exactly what I wanted & more. I am absolutely thrilled with my portrait of my Robin. She took her time to listen & was so professional from start to finish. The portrait is to mark a special birthday & holds a sentimental story, it’s just fantastic. When it arrived it was so professionally gift wrapped, with the authenticity certificate & care information individually put together, with lots of extra bits, which made it even more special. I will be using Molly again & if you’re looking for something special, don’t look any further. Thank you Molly for your amazing work & service x”
- Lynn, UK
Parka (10” x 14”)

the coates’ Wedding calligraphy
”Right, I don’t even know where to start! From the beginning to the end your service has been impeccable! I could not fault you in any way and have recommended you over and over again! You really understood my vision right from our initial chats and you truly delivered in all my dreams for my calligraphy on my special day!
As for the finished products you provided, well they were amazing! They far surpassed anything I could imagine and really made our day looked beautiful! I knew they looked amazing from delivery but the compliments and comments we received from guests sealed the deal! Even the venue commented on how beautiful they were - and in particularly how you had captured the detail of our day and matched your floral designs to our flowers (they said they had never seen this done so exactly before!)
I can’t compliment or thank you enough for tying our day altogether and for creating the image I had in my head for so long!
Thanks again Molly for all your hard work and your patience with me throughout the design process! I truly can’t thank you enough!'“
