Edmonds artist Joel Patience is looking for six missing watercolor paintings that used to be on exhibit in an Italian restaurant in Snoqualmie. According to the Snoqualmie Police report, Patience loaned 11 of his paintings to Tony Botchev, owner of Brunello Ristorante, about 10 years ago. Patience told My Neighborhood News Group that he was trying to get a few paintings from the restaurant to add to his exhibit inside US Bank in Edmonds. According to the police report, Snoqualmie police officer Michael Peter met with Montalto at the restaurant in November 2025. As for the missing paintings, Patience said he has registered them with Interpol, and he hopes to recover all six.
