Noeline was personable, engaging and had some great information.
We learnt some fun ways to draw Llamas that could be adapted to different animals too!

Tiarna Hartley Feb 2024


A very fun activity!
Noeline was a fantastic host. She provided very interesting information regarding the animation world and we learnt many fun facts about Cadbury and his friends. Noeline provided easy instructions for drawing a Llama which all levels of artistic ability could follow.
A great idea for a team social activity!

Thank you so much Noeline! Our team at Findex had great fun participating in this activity. Attached are a few of our attempted drawings of Llamas :)

It was great meeting Cadbury the llama and friends. The drawing process was simplified so that it was fun and not at all intimidating. I really enjoyed it. Thanks Noeline.

FANTASTIC! Loved every part of it! Cadbury and all the other animals were gorgous. I got to enjoy their personalities and I could feel their love. I also learned how to draw Llamas with a range of facial expressions. It was heaps of fun. Highly recommend :)

Great session as always. A fun indoor and outdoor session while even doing it online. Love hearing all their stories. Make it more meaningful to learn and draw drawing of different faces of a llama.

Noeline was great We are a disability adults group and she was very accommodating and helpful. Gave the participants lots of interesting and fun fasts too. We all loved Cadbury, nevertheless, seeing the donkeys and the sheep, especially Binnie, Cadburys friend was delightful :P Overall, great different and fun experience to keep in mind for indoor activities. 10/10.

This class definitely lived up to all it's glowing reviews! Everyone in our group had a great time.

It was really lovely to see Cadbury, Beanie, Cindy, Candy and all the other farm friends. The drawing part of the workshop was also great. It was really fascinating to hear about how hand drawn animation was done and see some of Noeline's work.

Noeline was so friendly and knowledgeable, and answered all our questions. She also made it super easy for all of us to draw pretty cool looking cartoon Llamas.

Our staff really enjoyed this class! We got to learn a whole lot of interesting facts about llamas. Noeline is lovely and all of her animals are beautiful, particularly Cadbury! All animals are sentient beings and deserve to be cared for and loved as Noeline does for hers.

Just finished with Noeline and Cadbury now and our group had a great time! Booked the activity as a virtual surprise for a conference and it went down a treat. Cadbury and the rest of the gang are lovely, and Noeline is a great host, really interesting to listen to and very talented at drawing!(and teaching us how to draw!)
I think our group was very impressed that we came away being able to draw a cartoon llama! Would highly recommend.

Don’t think this is just for kids. My adult daughter and I had the best hour. Learnt about llamas and also developed some cartoon drawing skills. You don’t need any drawing skills to do this class. I would highly recommend it.

It was so great to meet Cadbury, hear the amazing stories from Noeline and also surprise ourselves at how we were able to draw Llamas … and they were recognisable. Thanks Noeline, amazing social to do with the team!

Phyllis Chen Nov 2021


Good and interesting drawings. Good to see the animals and llama would be good to have more drawing opportunities

Thank you for your feedback Phyllis. I LOVE that you would have liked to draw more llamas! Your team did a wonderful job of their llama drawings.

I booked Noelines class very last minute as a surprise for my brother in laws birthday as the borders are closed and we couldn't celebrate together. We had the best time! It was so fun meeting Cadbury and his animal friends.

Noeline is an excellent teacher and made it so easy to draw Cadbury in different poses whilst teaching us about animation and llamas.

I highly recommend this class to all ages. (even if you think you can't draw a llama, I promise you can!).

Noelene ran a fantastic session of how to draw a Llama. Everyone loved meeting Cadbury and learning more about Llamas and the step by step instructions on how to draw one. I also loved learning about Noelene's interesting career history as an artist.

Noelle and Cadbury were so wonderful! They joined for a virtual Hen's Party and it was such a fun interactive way to get people laughing. We are all now proud Llama cartoonists :) Big thank you to Noelle for her great teaching, farm tour and for sharing some great stories.

Sarah McCormick Oct 2021


Oh gosh my cheeks are still sore from this session from smiling so much! We used this as a team activity at work and it was a lot of fun. Noeline was wonderful and the hour flew by and not only can I draw a cartoon llama - I also know a heap of interesting facts about them to as well as how animation works. Highly recommend.

Fonda Duffy Sep 2021


Absolutely exceeded my expectations - really can't recommend this enough Noeline is not only awesome, talented, and has an incredibly interesting career but she's also very organised, efficient and tech savvy. The animals were such a delight, they had real personality, the team really enjoyed meeting all of them! We were all very entertained. And the drawing part was run so well, no prior skills required either. Thanks so much! Really happy we got to do this and meet Noeline, Cadbury and the other animals!

A wonderful little class to meet a real life Ilama (and friends!) This was a great activity for my child to further explore other drawing skills in a fun and supportive way. Thank you.

Nick D'Onofrio Sep 2021


Outstanding activity. Noeline is fun, charismatic and informative. We did this activity with a group of 40 co-workers and they all loved it. Great way to do something fun that everyone can get involved in. Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone that wants to do an out-of-the-normal, fun team activity!

We held this workshop for staff (and their families) and it was GREAT fun! Noeline introduced herself and talked about her super-fun career in animation & illustration and shared some interesting Llama facts with us. We then went outside to meet Cadbury and some of his adorable farm friends - we had the chance to ask questions about llamas & Cadbury which Neoline happily answered. Back inside Neoline walked us through the process of drawing a llama - thankfully for those not artistic she show as the stages of drawing a llama and how to change elements up like the eyes and mouth. GREAT fun

This class was fabulous our team absolutely loved it. Something so different and enjoyable. I was nervous about having to draw as I am not good at it but Noeline the instructor was so good at explaining how to draw my lama actually turned out decent!
Noeline was so informative and a great host. Loved seeing all the animals on the fram. Highly recommend Noeline and the session.

Noeline was great! It is so hard to keep 20 people on a zoom meet engaged and laughing for an hour and she did! Would recommend this class for anyone who needs to brighten up their day :) Thanks Noeline

We got so much great feedback about how family friendly and inclusive the session was and it was just what people needed for a pep up and escape from the day to day.

Really enjoyed it but a little bit more time on the drawings would be better which is why I can't wait to do the full class with the recording as that will give me more time to learn. But it was fun & very interesting. The teacher was excellent, explained things well and for my first streaming class they turned out not too bad even if the Llamas look a bit slooshed.

What a great way to spend a lunchbreak. I've learnt a lot about Llamas. They certainly are a cute animal. I'm not much of an artist but I found the small steps given by the teacher actually gave me a pretty good looking Llama.
Thankyou, can't wait for the next one.
