DUI driver pleads guilty in fatal hit-and-run Thomas Frey Staff writer Anthony B. Smith pleaded guilty Tuesday in the DUI hitand-run that killed Camino teenager Julianna Abballo. Julianna, 14, was walking along Carson Road Feb. 8 when she was struck by Smith’s SUV. Smith, a Pollock Pines resident, drove off after the collision. It was Smith’s second DUI in four days. Smith pleaded guilty to gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated with an enhancement for fleeing the scene; felony hit-

and-run resulting in death; and a third count related to the earlier DUI with an enhancement for driving with a blood alcohol level higher than 0.15%. Smith’s maximum sentence is 16 1/2 years in state prison, according to the El Dorado County District Attorney’s Office. He will be sentenced June 14 at 8 a.m. in Department 7. It was a Tuesday at 4:15 p.m. when Smith — 23 at the time — was driving along Carson Road east of Barkley Road. According to California Highway Patrol investigators, he veered off the roadway and onto the north

shoulder, where his 2018 Honda CR-V hit and killed Julianna. He fled the scene and when he turned himself in four hours later, his blood alcohol level was still a 0.14. In Smith’s first court appearance Feb. 14, where he pleaded not guilty, Judge Mark Ralphs had to verify what he had just heard from Michael Pizzuti, representing the people. “Four hours later and still a 0.14?” Ralphs asked. “Yes,” Pizzuti confirmed. Moments later when Ralphs n

2 candidates for assessor quizzed Thomas Frey Staff writer Jon DeVille and Daniel Tuning are running to fill El Dorado County’s assessor role Karl Weiland will leave behind when he retires at the end of 2022. The two candidates answered questions April 28 at a non-partisan forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters of El Dorado County ahead of the June 7 election.

DeVille is also a resident of Rescue and graduated from California State University, San Francisco’s business school before going to work for Fortune 100 companies Sony and Oracle. In 2013 he joined the El Dorado County Sheriff ’s Office as chief fiscal officer. “I know it’s a very challenging job but with my background and many of the challenges I’ve had to face I believe it’s something that I can contribute to the county and do the best job I can to be a fair assessor,” Tuning said in his opening statement. “I feel like this is right down my wheelhouse and that I’ll be able to do a great job.” In DeVille’s opening statement he said he “understand(s) El Dorado County” and is familiar with the residents, real estate market and business community. “I believe it’s vital for an assessor to have a deep understanding of the community they serve n

EID flume repairs

A race to replace

Michael Raffety Staff writer

ouring El Dorado Irrigation District’s flume replacement projects May 2 it was clear water would be flowing again soon. Flumes 4, 5, 6 and 30 took damage last year when the Caldor Fire scorched the steep upcountry slopes where the canal system captures water for EID customers and for power generation. Total repair costs came in around $25 million. The original contract with Syblon Reid was to construct 6 miles of roads this season and then rebuild Flume 30 the following season for $8 million. Instead, both the roads and concreting Flume 30 at the exit of the Mill-to-Bull Creek Tunnel needed to be done in one season to get the destroyed flumes working for EID in time to capture spring rain and snowmelt. Syblon Reid was awarded an emergency contract to concrete Flumes 4, 5 and 6 for time and materials not to exceed $17 million. EID hydro crews rebuilt

Foaming concrete is filled in behind Flume 6. 147 feet of Flume 4 as a wood flume because the structure was reasonably intact. Syblon Reid’s total concrete canal construction was 1,085 linear feet of steel-reinforced U-channel canal. When EID General Manager Jim Abercrombie brought the emergency contract to the board Sept. 13, he called it “the largest and most costly effort to restore that portion of our water supply.” On a tour of project progress Feb. 17 the future site of the concrete section of Flume 4 was

about 30 feet below the repaired wooden section of Flume 4. That concrete U-shaped canal was completed and connected to the wooden flume that El Dorado Irrigation hydro crews had reconstructed. The reason for digging down so far at the junction with the wooden Flume 4 section was the discovery of an old slide that had to be removed to find a solid base from which to build back up. Two tasks were under way May n

Linda FlightLebedowicz

Linda Flight was born on a cold day in February, 1952 in Southport, England. When she turned 28 she packed her bags and left her homeland in search of a new life in the United States. She would eventually call Placerville her home. Linda Flight-Lebedowicz brought light into every life she touched. On May 6 her light, at least here on earth, faded but for those who loved her and knew her the light will burn on in their memories. While living in Redondo Beach and working as a receptionist for a newly formed franchise called “X-press Football” she was introduced by a mutual friend to Paul Lebedowicz. The two were married in 1985 and eventually built their “forever” home in Placerville. Linda could be found early in the mornings, inspecting new blooms on an exotic plant or wondering how to finish off the fountain they’d just put in. It was Linda who named the deer that attempted to breach the gates and dine on the tender vegetation. And being the colorful person that Linda was known to be, often those names were not endearing. If ever there were a Heaven on Earth, it was in the gardens that she and Paul created. Thousands of twinkling fairy lights create the enchanted landscape and she, Paul and her fur baby, Foxy would step out onto the deck and take is the beauty. From August until December, Linda worked as an artist selling the hand crafted conversation starters called “Woodkins.” Anyone who regularly visits High Hill Ranch in Apple Hill more than likely owns a hand painted, gender specific ear of corn on the cob or a bright yellow daffodil that has a face as bright as the sun. Linda spent her summers preparing for the shows, knowing that her regulars would ask, “So what’s new this year.” She will be missed and remembered by so many. She is survived by her husband of 37 years Paul Lebedowicz; her niece Fallon Lebenowicz of New York and her well-loved dog, Foxy. She is preceded in death by her mother Pauline Flight, of Southport, England. Services will be held Friday, May 13 at 1 p.m. at Green Valley Mortuary and Cemetary, 3005 Alexandrite, Drive, Rescue. Guests will have a chance to visit and share stories about Linda and her extraordinary life. Remembrances may be made in her name to the El Dorado County Animal control.

A man was arrested outside the Safeway grocery store on Francisco Drive in El Dorado Hills May 5 reportedly in possession of about $1,200 in stolen alcoholic beverages. Alcoholic Beverage Control agents said they were investigating reports of minors shoplifting alcoholic beverages from the store when they observed Jimmy Joseph Gilg, 48, leaving the store with the allegedly stolen merchandise. Safeway employees had reportedly expressed a concern. Gilg’s last known address is unknown but he is reported to have resided in the Bay Area. Investigators suspect Gilg was stealing items for another person. He was booked into El Dorado County’s main jail in Placerville and is held on $251,000 bail, county jail logs show. Charges listed include felony organized retail theft and felony shoplifting, as well as a felony bail enhancement.

since the assessor is the authority on determining values of business property, real estate property and personal property,” he said. Eileen Burke-Trent, chapter president of the League of Women Voters of El Dorado County moderated the in-person and livestreamed forum held at Placerville Town Hall and posed the evening’s questions for DeVille and Tuning. The first question asked was if a taxpayer thinks their property taxes are too high, what can the Assessor’s Office do to help? Tuning said he would find out what staff is working on that property and try to figure out why the taxpayer was disagreeing or if they had communicated what the issues were.

He might then see if a reevaluation needed to take place. If he wasn’t able to get to the bottom of it, he would talk to the property owner personally. “If there was still no reconciling or agreeing with the assessment, then I would make sure that the taxpayer was well aware of their appeal rights,” Tuning said. DeVille said if he is elected, a property owner can meet with him personally. “We would discuss the details of that appraisal assessment and if the property owner had valid arguments, we could possibly change that assessment and adjust it,” DeVille said. “If we couldn’t agree on any adjustment, the property owner would have the right to appeal.” Burke-Trent then asked about the candidates’ experience and strategy in managing employees. Tuning said he has management experience through his work at Ernst & Young, as an accounting manager or leading people in many spectrums of business. “It’s important

we maintain those relationships with the staff and help build a team and make sure they’re adequately rewarded.” Tuning said. DeVille said he is proud of the team he manages at the Sheriff ’s Office. He said many have been promoted and have key roles within the county. “You have to make sure you set clear organizational goals that each staff member understands and that they make sure they put those organizational goals before themselves,” DeVille said. “You have to make sure you lead by example and make sure your staff understands that they matter as much as you matter.” Burke-Trent asked how the candidates would work with the Board of Supervisors. “Although it’s important to get along with the board, I report to the voters in El Dorado County,” DeVille said. “With that I think it’s important to have a good working relationship with the board and with the department heads and the staff that make up this county.” He said he has experience as a liaison for the county in regards to FEMA disaster reimbursements. “We received around $15 million from the 2017 storm disasters,” DeVille said. “I’m working on the Caldor Fire FEMA dealings as well. In that role I have to work with multiple departments so working with the board is going

to be similar to that. I’m very confident I will be able to work with them.” Tuning cited his board experience as a student trustee on the Los Rios Community College Board of Trustees in the 1984-85 academic year. “I think the relationships have to be nurtured and they have to be fed,” Tuning said. “You have to care about those people on the board even though you may not agree with them on certain items. I think it’s a give and take relationship and I think it can be a very healthy one.” Once the candidates wrapped up their answers they gave closing statements. “If elected first and foremost I will provide fair and accurate assessments and will adopt concise organizational goals that will focus on being transparent and impartial,” DeVille said. “Secondly, I will run the Assessor’s Office with efficiency. Efficiency I learned working for two Fortune 100 companies.” In Tuning’s closing statement he said his business experience will help him in the Assessor’s Office. “I know I can do this job and I know I have the biggest toolbox of both of us,” Tuning said. ”All my clients love me. I’ve had a lot of growth in the past few years. I know what it’s like to be able to solve financial problems and tax problems.” To watch a video of the forum online go to fb.watch/cXYZgZbK84.

Our advanced treatment method has 3 main goals

Increase Blow flow

Stimulate small fiber nerves

Decrease brain based pain

The treatment to increase blood flow utilizes a specialized low-level light therapy (not to be confused with laser therapy) using light emitting diode technology. This technology was originally developed by NASA to assist in increasing blow flow. The low level light therapy is like watering a tree. The light therapy will allow the blood vessels to grow back around the peripheral nerves and provide them with the proper nutrients to heal and repair. It’s like adding water to a tree and seeing the roots grow deeper and deeper. The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to fully recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation. “My feet hurt so bad after sitting I could barely take the first few steps. I have had 11 treatments and no longer feel sharp or shooting pains and most of the tingling is gone. I now have full balance and can walk without pain. As Dr. Mooney explained the treatment is not painful, nothing uncomfortable, and is actually very relaxing.” – Neuropathy Pain Patient John Mooney, DC at Premier Healthcare will do a neuropathy severity examination to determine the extent of the nerve damage for only $47.

California Matters

How will California handle a huge budget surplus?

ver the last quartercentury, as income taxes came to dominate the state government’s revenue stream and as a relative handful of wealthy Californians paid most of those taxes, a syndrome dubbed “volatility” plagued the Dan Walters state budget. When the economy was thriving and those elite taxpayers were seeing big gains on their investments, money poured into the state treasury, enabling the governor and legislators to ramp up spending. But when the economy cooled, revenues declined, sometimes very sharply, and the budget hemorrhaged red ink. A decade ago, a newly elected Gov. Jerry Brown persuaded voters to create what was dubbed a “rainy day fund” as a cushion during against economic downturns. The state’s reserves have grown immensely since then. Even the COVID-19 pandemic had little negative impact on revenues since the incomes of wealthy taxpayers were generally unaffected. If anything, the revenue flow has accelerated, providing tens of billions of dollars in revenues beyond what’s needed to maintain current California’s treasury programs and services. is awash in cash What to do with and the Capitol’s the extra cash is now dominant Democrats a point of contention among the Capitol’s now must decide dominant Democrats. how to handle the Should they cornucopia. satisfy the demands of progressive activists who want to transform California into a European-style welfare state? Should they be conservative by increasing reserves, reducing debt and/or making one-time commitments, such as public works projects, to minimize permanent commitments? Or should they give at least some of the money back to taxpayers, albeit not necessarily the rich ones who provided the bounty. Those questions loom anew as the Capitol begins the dash to June 15, when a new budget must be completed. As Gov. Gavin Newsom finalizes his May 15 budget revision, it’s obvious that it will project a

Letters to the Editor Terrific teachers EDITOR: his week is California Teachers Week and Wednesday, May 11, was Day of the Teacher. I want to thank and congratulate all El Dorado County teachers. There is a reason that many people are coming to our beautiful county. The main reason for families with children are the great schools with caring staff and excellent teachers. I can speak personally about this because of my many years of involvement with Division 73, El Dorado County Retired Teachers Association’s Mini-Grant program. This program now is well known and the grant requests are thoughtfully prepared and competitive. I have had the opportunity to read numerous grant applications, present the awards in person and observe the dynamics of the school staffs at all levels — elementary school, middle school and high school. I am from another county, so I didn’t work with these teachers. However, looking back, I wish I could have been part of these school staffs. COVID-19, masks and virtual learning never will replace in classroom learning with student-teacher personal interaction. Just ask any child, parent or grandparent. We all know and have read the answer to that question. Hats off to all teachers. My favorite saying, “If you can read this letter, thank a teacher.” MARGARET KIRCHGATER Shingle Springs

Support Joe Patterson for Assembly EDITOR:

ith Assemblymember Kevin Kiley taking his talents to Congress, voters in western El Dorado County need a new representative in Sacramento. Fortunately, Joe Patterson has stepped up and is well equipped for the challenge. Assemblymember Kiley supports Joe as his successor for good reason. Joe Patterson has served as a Rocklin City councilmember since 2016. He focuses on public safety, quality of life and stands up against wasteful spending and tax increases. He is also one of the most accessible government officials in the Sacramento region — he gives every citizen his cell

phone number and personally responds to social media messages and emails. While Joe lives in Rocklin with his wife and four kids, he is no stranger to El Dorado County. He and his family own property in our county and he is knowledgeable about our concerns including water supply, fire danger and lack of broadband access. Among the Assembly candidates, he is uniquely qualified to fight for us. I hope you will join me, the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association and dozens of elected and community leaders in supporting Joe Patterson for State Assembly. ANDY NEVIS Shingle Springs

Recycling centers EDITOR: egarding past letters about the recycling center behind Bel-Air in Cameron Park closing. It was relocated a short distance away. It’s now on Saratoga Way off Cameron Park Drive. It’s now a clean and well-maintained area with regular hours of operation. It’s completely fenced in and locked up when it’s closed. CAROLE WRIGHT Shingle Springs

UN needs to change or go EDITOR: thought the primary purpose of the United Nations was to prevent World War III and that is why the primary victors of WWII — China, Russia, France, Great Britain and the U.S. — formed a Security Council and gave themselves veto power. For instance, the UN wanted to condemn Putin for the last time he invaded Ukraine, but Russia vetoed that action. The process is inequitable at best, especially when Russia can override the will of 192 other countries while threatening to destroy humanity. The UN is a failed organization that should either remove the Security Council’s veto authority or disband and we build a new world organization that is designed to combat dictators and avoid WWIII.

What’s next? A population boom coming to U.S.?

’m sure many folks besides me have given some thought to what the country is going to do with all the extra people coming along over the next generation. What about all those mouths to feed, brains to educate, personalities to nurture, Chris career decisions to support (both good and bad), runaway burn piles and barbecue fires to put out? Just to mention a few significant issues resulting from newly emerging health related laws — specifically those restricting family planning. More kids also means more cats to be rescued by first responders, but that’s fairly small potatoes, honestly. Texas, Florida, Oklahoma, Louisiana and, most especially, Mississippi spearhead the current race to severely limit if not outright ban and outlaw the actual procedure along with a wide range of activities accompanying the (now on life

support) but still legal termination of pregnancy. The Texas and Mississippi versions of the legislative efforts are easily the cleverest examples so far. Those lawmakers drew up bills that make their state’s citizens at large the enforcement arm of Daley the laws. Thus the state is not the responsible nor accountable entity and therefore cannot be held liable for any damages. In practical terms, you can’t sue the state, that is, the party with the “deep pockets.” You can go after … well, you can go after just about everyone else in-state, out of state, in-country or out of country now and evermore one assumes. Admittedly it’s a pretty slow way to get a $40 million payday compared to actually besting a state like Texas or Florida in court.

Are today’s and tomorrow’s taxpayers prepared for the onslaught of more butts in K-12 classroom seats? How about mid-morning nutrition breaks not to mention free or reduced lunches and hiring an avalanche of new bus drivers and “yard duties”? I’m not sure about the future of bus drivers and a lot of school districts don’t provide pencils, paper, nurses or counselors anymore anyway so there’s probably some savings to be realized in those areas. I don’t want to simply focus on the potential negative impacts of a sudden, dramatic increase in America’s population based on this imminent implementation of the growing collection of pending legislation. On the bright side, imagine how many Einsteins are out there just waiting to be born; how many Bob

Dylans and Joe Montanas, Nancy Pelosis and Beyonces and Michelle Obamas and Kim Kardashians, Melania/Ivankas, Jonathan Winters and Tom McClintocks. The list is almost endless. So is the Stalin, Mao, Putin, Manson, Capone and Witch of the West list. Is it a one-for-one wash? Probably not, but you get the point. If you’re a half-dozen shy of volleyball setters, tug-o-war warriors, Tuesday bowling studs, cannon fodder and chain gang units, just wait a couple of cycles. They’ll be along and not just in Mississippi, Texas and the entire southern region of the country.

Notably, the likelihood of a budget problem recently estimated that the general fund surplus largely is impervious to the future trajectory of state could hit a staggering $68 billion — and that tax revenues.” doesn’t count the extra money, perhaps as much as Petek’s advice is anathema to legislators oriented $37 billion, that, by law, must be spent on public toward expansive spending, and some want to education. respond by repealing the Gann Limit. That, Newsom and legislative leaders agree that at least however, would take a constitutional amendment some of the extra cash should be in the form of approved by voters, so at least in the short run, no-strings grants to California families, but there’s no agreement on how much or who would — and Newsom and legislators must obey the Gann Limit would not — qualify for the election year payouts. as they decide how to handle an unprecedented “We stand ready to act as soon as the governor flow of cash. joins us in supporting a plan that provides stronger Dan Walters is a journalist and author who writes for CALmatters.org, a nonprofit, nonpartisan media relief for California families,” the Legislature’s top venture explaining California policies and politics. two leaders, Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins and Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon, said in a joint statement. Meanwhile, the Legislature’s budget analyst, Gabe Continued from A4 Petek, warns that ever-increasing revenues will mean ever-tightening legal requirements to channel Jesus or similar realms unknown. There is one entity to which a woman’s body surpluses into a few categories, including rebates to should not belong. That is, a power-hungry crew taxpayers, rather than spend them. That’s because of mostly guys, mostly white, mostly from lowof the Gann Limit, a ballot measure that voters approved in 1979, with the support of Brown during performing places dominated by low-performing his first governorship. Thus, Petek advised, the most intellectual, philosophical and religious thugs.

Three high schools sweep league championships Eric Jaramishian Staff writer Three El Dorado County high schools took home gold for both their boys and girls track and field teams in league championships. At Encina High School in Sacramento May 4, the Golden Sierra Grizzlies dominated the

Sierra Delta League, facing off against Vacaville Christian, Linden, Highlands and San Juan high schools. The El Dorado Cougars went into enemy territory at Liberty Ranch in Galt April 30 and took over the track, asserting themselves as the best in the Sierra Valley

Conference over Liberty Ranch, Galt, Rosemont, Bradshaw Christian and Union Mine high schools. Ponderosa proved to be too much for the Foothill Valley League at Oakmont May 5 in Roseville, competing against West Park, Oakmont, Rio Linda, Placer, Lincoln and Nevada Union. Athletes who reached qualifying marks moved on to division finals May 10-13 for a chance to compete in the SacJoaquin Section finals May 20.

2 — removing a plug of dirt between Flumes 4 and 5 that had provided a bridge for construction access and adding foaming concrete behind Flume 6. When the foaming concrete sets up and is level with the top of the concrete canal it serves as a protection against falling debris damaging the back wall of the canal. It has taken a month and a half to complete the concrete canal sections. Heavy rainfall in October, followed by several feet of snow in December and then 7 inches of snow in April slowed the emergency construction down. Past projects Syblon Reid has worked on for EID include Flume 42/43 and taking over the Camp 2 Bridge after the original contractor was fired. Syblon Reid also rebuilt Flume 10 on an emergency contract after the heavy winter of 2017 blew out that section of flume. Syblon Reid

rebuilt Flume 10 as a concrete culvert with a concrete cover. Despite the many challenges of EID’s projects and the terrain Syblon Reid maintains a solid safety record and is able to execute the contracts. Paul Harlow, the engineering contractor’s general superintendent, is known to be on site before the crack of dawn and to stay there until near twilight. Water is now flowing in the 22 miles of flumes and canals and Forebay Reservoir will be filling up. Water will be running through the powerhouse and through the new pipeline to Reservoir 1 Treatment Plant in Pollock Pines. That water will flow all the way to El Dorado Hills until the hot weather kicks in and El Dorado Hills is served by the new $42 million pumping system submerged in stainless steel tubes into Folsom Lake.

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). No one is born knowing it all. Those who act like they’ve achieved total knowledge will annoy the rest. You’ll be open to learning and you’ll enjoy what others contribute to your body of knowledge. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you’re around people you trust, it’s easier to have fun. You’ll find yourself in circumstances that engage your senses and invite you to be fully present to the moment. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People make decisions based on what’s easy to evaluate, not what’s most important. Knowing this, you’ll make it easy for someone to choose the thing that would be good for you too. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You may find yourself tidying a room instead of tackling a task. When you don’t know where to begin, even cleaning seems like a good idea. But once you actually do get started, everything will come together quickly for you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll notice you’re of a different mind entirely from where you were last year. You’ve dispelled a few myths and course-corrected accordingly. You’ll get a chance to go back and pick up something you lost along the way. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People can be bad at relationships and good at their jobs or socially irresponsible and personally devoted... you’ll grapple with contrasts and note the benefits and shadow aspects of an interaction.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There will be something to settle and a face-to-face exchange is the best option. Your verbal game is on point. With a little forethought you’ll negotiate your way into a sweet deal. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Some say everything happens for a reason. Others say life is random. You’ll have a little evidence for both arguments today and whatever you get you’ll leverage into a tidy chunk of good fortune. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There will be pressure to take life at a hurried speed. Push back — change lanes or remove yourself from the race entirely. You’ll be happier going at your own pace. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). No matter how brilliant your work may be, it won’t play in the wrong crowd. Do your research, find out what appetites you’re dealing with, and aim your efforts to serve those desires.

showcases exceptional talents at Gold Country D. Lee Reyes Gold Country Artists Gallery

old Country Artists Gallery, an awardwinning artists’ cooperative in Placerville, is now showing new paintings by Valerie Bye and new ceramic sculptures by Caren Halvorsen.

Song in her heart A founding member of Gold Country Artists Gallery, Bye’s work reflects her belief that there is beauty all around us. “I have a whole world of paintings in my head,” she said, adding she delights in sharing that world, expressing it through her many art mediums. Although interested in creating works of art when she was young, Bye began her serious painting career while encouraging her youngest son to use his artistic abilities. She entered an oil painting in a local juried art show and won the first of many awards. She currently devotes her attention to painting with acrylics and her newest canvases burst with intense, saturated colors. Bye created a series of paintings featuring a single large tree at sunset. Each branch and leaf holds the last of the sun’s gold in her “Desert Twilight.” And set against a twilight sky of cerulean and azure blues, she illuminates a tree with both the last of the sun’s golden light and the first light of a “Silvery Moon.” She enjoys en plein aire, a style of painting that gives the artist the wonderful experience of painting outdoors. In “Meditation” she captured the blissful feeling of sitting by a gentle stream, surrounded by purple flowers and the companionship of a faithful dog curled up nearby. For “Sunset on the Delta” she perfected the colors of the landscape at the precise moment before the crimson sun is completely gone, the last vivid oranges, intense yellows and deep blues emerging at the end of day. Near the shore, the stark white plumage of two herons seem to glow until the last moment. Bye is influenced by Art Deco and Nouveau styles, and her visits to Europe and love for Asian cultures influence her body of work, especially her still-lifes. A close look at her “Camellia in Koi Vase” reveals these influences to create a painting done in Bye’s distinctive style. Bye said she has come a long way as an artist, from her first oil painting to becoming a member of many art societies and having her work in private collections around the world. “A cup of coffee, some nice music, the beautiful colors on my palette, the view of my garden from my studio window and a blank canvas is the beginning of a perfect day —

“Sunset on the Delta” by Valerie Bye and it puts a song in my heart,” she shared. “I hope viewers of my artwork experience that feeling as well.”

A humorous journey Starting as a little girl drawing playmates on her bedroom walls, Halvorsen has always reshaped her world with her imagination and creative gift for seeing the in-between spaces and filling them with her art. Always seeking new mediums with which to express herself, she has found pure joy in painting, designing jewelry, sculpture and ceramics. “I’ve never mastered the art of throwing clay on a wheel,” she explained, so she focuses on her hand-building skills. Putting her imagination to work, she uses wonderfully malleable clay to translate what she imagines into reality. Draping wet slabs of clay over paper tubes, she creates cylinders. When dried to a state of “leather hardness” she removes the tubes and sets to work to sculpt the clay. The process can be tricky, Halvorsen said, but her familiarity with the properties of clay guides her, explaining that clay is climate dependent. “(It’s) precarious during cold and moist seasons and infuriating during hot, dry spells,” she shared. “But there is such joy in coaxing a form and teasing an expression.” Ideas come to her in a flash of inspiration. A “WatchDog” was the first figure she made that she combined clay with “punny” humor. Then came “MelonCollie,” with a collie dog with a sad expression nibbling a slice of melon. Having a degree in English literature may contribute to the titles she chooses, like her

“Tequila Mockingbird” by Caren Halvorsen “Tequila Mockingbird” and “Bun Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” but it is more likely her whimsical nature and sassy sense of humor that accounts for her delightful sense of wordplay. Halvorsen also presents her “MOMification” statuette nestled within its own sarcophagus and “Yes, Virginia, There is a Menopause” with a harried-looking woman surrounded by numerous howling children. Halvorsen’s gift for storytelling through each of her one-of-a-kind sculptures is genius, but also a result of an intensive process that can take days to complete. Even a master, using the greatest of care, may not know the fate of that piece until the kiln cools off enough to be opened up to see if the work survived. But

for Halvorsen, this is also part of the in-between spaces she revels in discovering. “Art is about the journey rather than the destination for me,” she said. “It is within the process of becoming where alchemy exists.” The art of transforming her ideas into something greater is the alchemy of her art. Gold Country Artists Gallery, 379 Main St. in Placerville, features the work of many award-winning regional artists working in fields as diverse as fine jewelry, photography, fused glass, wood turning, pastels, colored pencil, scratch board and watercolor, acrylic and oil painting.

Local ballet studio gets a fresh start Jana Rossi Staff writer

ormer ballerina and owner of the California Ballet Conservatory studio Killian Stephens had the best of intentions; they just happened to coincide with one of the worst points in time. Stephens had always dreamed of opening a ballet studio that teaches high-caliber ballet normally found in a big city — just closer to her hometown of Pollock Pines. In 2020 her dream came to fruition when she opened her dream studio in Cameron Park. Then COVID hit. Fast forward to this March and Stephens has found a way to breathe new life into her lifelong dream. The turning point, she said, was when her original partner decided to call it quits. Unsure what her next step would be, she shared her predicament with client Nicole Andrews. “She told me to trust the universe,” she recalled. The universe rapidly responded when Nicole and her husband Steve Andrews stepped up and offered to partner with Stephens. She calls them her angels and describes them as fully committed to investing in the community and also a lot of fun. “Their presence has created such a lovely and supportive environment for the staff and students,” Stephens said. The Andrews, whose background is in marketing specifically for women owned

This joint partnership has helped to invigorate Stephens’ resolve to continue to provide elite ballet training to ages 3 to 18, while also adding in a few new programs that appeal to a larger audience. In May CBC Studio Fitness will launch. This new program is geared toward adults interested in getting fit and having fun. On the schedule so far is ballet, yoga, flexibility, strength and Latin dance. Stephens said she is open to any additional requests. “Having the Andrews as partners at CBC is a dream come true on so many levels,” Stephens said. “They have an unwavering belief in what we are doing at the conservatory. They recognize the caliber

of training that our students are receiving, the accolades and opportunities that our graduates and alumni are receiving and the manner in which a high-quality dance education enriches the lives of our students and families. “They passionately want to share these incredible opportunities with the community and expand these offerings to El Dorado County and surrounding area families,” she continued. “They are committed to excellence and are also brimming with ideas and a generosity of spirit and enthusiasm that is contagious. My heart is so full and grateful for their beautiful energy and passion.” CBC is a unique dance studio in that it is also part of a day program for homeschooled and

independent study students — a program the studio staff will expand to include performing arts. Also returning this summer are kid’s intensives and camps, which will run June through August. “At California Ballet Conservatory we are strong proponents of homeschooling families and provide the perfect blend of adjunct classes from both the performing arts and

fitness perspective,” Stephens said. “We currently have a robust and delightful program catering to homeschool families. In addition to classical ballet, our students take strength and toning, and cardio and flexibility classes making our students well-rounded athletes. We are dedicated to educating the ‘whole child’ as well as providing the safest, warmest, personable

and wholesome studio environment for our families.” On May 14, CBC will hold its second grand opening and offer free classes, refreshments and more. California Ballet Conservatory is located at 2570 Greenwood Lane, just off the Cambridge Road exit on Highway 50. For more information visit californiaballetconservatory.com or call (530) 292-6106.

Sierra Master Chorale presents classic choral concert News release

nConcert Sierra presents the Sierra Master Chorale, conducted by Alison Skinner, for an afternoon of magnificent choral music at 2 p.m. Sunday, May 15, in Grass Valley. The program is replete with some of the most popular works for classical choral music. “We are singing three of my all-time favorite pieces of all time, Mendelssohn’s ‘Verlaih uns Friedan,’ Brahms’ ‘O Schone Nacht’ and Mozart’s ‘Ave Verum Corpus’,” said chorister Gwendy Reeder.

community,” said chorister Charlie Zimmerman. In response to currently low community case numbers of COVID and recommendations from the Nevada County Health Department, ICS will not check vaccination status. However, because of the

very nature of choral music, ICS will strongly encourage masks be worn indoors for the safety of choral members and audience. “We acknowledge that everyone has their own thoughts around masks and vaccines, yet many performers feel uneasy about the restrictions being lessened at this time. Because we wish to honor those concerns as the musicians share their gift of beautiful music with us all, we will request that those attending wear masks, but we will not mandate masks,” said Hardin. The concert will be approximately 70 minutes in length with no intermission at the Seventh-day Adventist Church, 12889 Osborne Hill Road in Grass Valley. For tickets and more information visit inconcertsierra.org or call (530) 273-3990. The Sierra Master Chorale is an auditioned choir founded in 2008. It is part of InConcert Sierra, a Nevada County nonprofit organization presenting high-caliber classical music performances and robust music education for all ages.

Mark Stanley — trustee, local health advocate, artist Patrol, Camino Community Action Committee, California Forest Pest Council and the Sierra Renaissance Society of El Dorado County. “I enjoy working with our various nonprofits. I feel that it’s important to give back to your community,” he explained. “Whatever your talents are, you need to get involved to make your community, and your world, a better place to live.” A registered professional forester, Stanley worked for the California Department of Forestry for 44 years and retired as the chief deputy director. During his career, he worked in all facets of forest management, including fire control, forestry, law enforcement, information technology and statewide management. Stanley’s love of trees is also reflected in his favorite hobby, woodturning. “I have my work in galleries in Placerville and Carmel. I just like wood.

ever one for city-life, Mark Stanley moved to Pollock Pines in 1977 from Fort

Bragg. “It was July and 105 degrees out. We just kept driving up the hill where it was cooler and there were trees,” Stanley mused. Stanley has a passion for community service. Now in his seventh year of volunteering his time to Marshall Foundation for Community Health, he is currently serving as treasurer on the foundation’s board of trustees. When asked why he dedicates himself to the foundation, he explained, “I have had excellent care at Marshall Hospital over the past 45 years. I had a stroke in 2016 that took away my ability to talk or even make a sound. The care I received at Marshall was more like that you’d receive as a family member, rather than a big business. “I’ll do whatever I can to help Marshall Medical continue to provide that type of care and to prosper into the future,” he continued. “The

African guitarist brings his talent to Grass Valley theater News release The Center for the Arts welcomes renowned guitarist, singer and songwriter Vieux Farka Touré to its Marisa Funk Theater May 14. Often referred to as “The Hendrix of the Sahara,” Vieux Farka Touré was born in Niafunké, Mali and is the son of legendary Malian guitar player Ali Farka Touré. He pays homage to his father and follows Ali’s musical tradition, giving new versions of the West African music that is echoed in the American blues, effortlessly blending elements of Latin, rock and jazz into his sound. Vieux was initially a drummer and calabash

(bottle gourd) player at Mali’s Institut National des Arts, but secretly began playing guitar in 2001. Vieux defied his family’s urges for him to become a soldier, choosing instead to carry on his father’s musical legacy. For more than 20 years, Vieux has been honing his craft and prowess on the guitar spanning a dozen remarkable albums, including noteworthy collaborations with New York-based singer Julia Easterlin and Israeli superstar Idan Raichel dubbed “The Touré-Raichel Collective” — hailed by fans and critics alike as a masterpiece and one of the best collaborative albums in the history of international music, drawing comparisons to Ali Farka Touré and Ry Cooder’s legendary “Talking

Timbuktu” album. With each new project, Vieux expands his horizons and embraces new challenges. Vieux has clearly established himself as one of the world’s rare musical talents and guitar virtuosos with a distinct style that always acknowledges the past while looking toward the future. Vieux is known for dazzling crowds with his speed and dexterity on the guitar, as well as his palpable charisma and luminous smile, both of which captivate audiences from all cultures. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the show begins at 8 p.m. at The Center for the Arts’ Marisa Funk Theater, 314 West Main St., Grass Valley. For tickets and more information visit thecenterforthearts.org.
