Lightworkers is a radiant two-part series that celebrates unity, instinct, and the silent intelligence of collective effort. Against a soft sky, sunflower-yellow birds gather in graceful formation — preparing, moving, and responding as one.

Inspired by the phenomenon of allelomimesis (group mimicry), these compositions reflect nature’s quiet choreography: a visual poem about mutual support, rhythm, and light-driven purpose. The flock becomes a metaphor for community in motion — elegant, intuitive, and filled with warmth.

According to the Urban Dictionary, a "Lone Ranger" is one who confidently "stands alone," is "constantly underestimated" but always "comes out on top" because of "superior intellect and skill."  The violet masked beauty in this composition with rococo cyan plumage from crown to toe against a salmon pink screen evokes mystery into her possible motivations.

Geoffrey Chaucer took lovebirds as his inspiration in his 1382 poem "Parlement of Foules" to honor the union of King Richard II of England and Anne of Bohemia:
"For this was on seynt Volantyns dayWhan euery bryd comyth there to chese his make.
He was the first to link the martyr "St. Valentine" with love, and thus perhaps our modern annual ritual of Valentine's day. Lovebird behaviors such as snuggling, preening, feeding, and pining for each other bear witness to their deserved name. This four-part set of magical lovebirds heightens their sense of warmth in the heart of the viewer with their noble grace.
