Joel Patience, Edmonds

Well-traveled artist

Joel Patience is an Edmonds artist
whose passion has taken him around the world.

“The most enjoyable parts of travel are the stories and memories that you bring home,” he said. “Travel and painting used to go hand in hand as a way to hold those memories.”

As far as Patience is concerned, they still do.

His defined painting lines come from a working knowledge of urban planning and construction. His paintings reflect theartisan design styles and workmanship that
have created these special places.

Watercolor is his way of placing the viewer in these historical, if not timeless settings. Many of the pieces are familiar points from his painting trips to Italy, Iceland, the Caribbean,
Northern Rockies, and the Pacific Northwest.

Patience creates product lines from his original
travel watercoors. “It’s old fashioned but a delightful way to share your travels. These might be chef’s wear, clothing,
high-def prints for your office or home, restaurant themes
and now … giant beach towels.”

Every painting is started on site, making
them unique by location or by perspective.
