Lisa Liang started her career at George Lucas's studio, Industrial Light & Magic, creating matte paintings for films such as Pirates of the Caribbean and Evan Almighty. From there, she designed concept environments for #1 games of the year such as, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Star Trek Online, Neverwinter Online, among others. Her love for adventure, the great outdoors and history have propelled her to create and exhibit fine art paintings in galleries, museums, and national parks. Even more importantly, growing up in the mountains of an island south of Japan instilled a deep appreciation for natural landscape and environment. Moving to the United States at a young age, art became undeniably an universal language that has bridged cultures and connected her past and present, as she excitedly embarked on a new chapter in a foreign land. Currently, she is researching new techniques and developing curriculum as an University Lecturer at the Academy of Art in San Francisco. She finds her greatest joy in creating works for non-profits and projects that bring awareness about crucial social and environmental issues of our time, in hope of promoting understanding, equality and freedom through her life and work
