Lisa has also been working on a conservation project soon to be finalized in the Philippines. The aim of this major undertaking to help preserve a bio diverse hot spot near the Provence of Bohol, commonly referred to as ‘The Chocolate Hills’ to halt the alarming rate of extinction occurring due to the logging of the rainforests in this region, her artwork is pivotal to this cause.
