Brushes have frozen in wax at the Watercolor and Beeswax Encaustic Studio of Deborah Stachowic, at the historic Rainier Cold Center, 5626 Airport Way S, Seattle, Washington 98108-2710. Deborah Stachowic's studio is in an 1890's registered historic building south of downtown Seattle, in the historic Georgetown area. This venerable building lies sandwiched between Airport Way South (formerly a gravel road) and train tracks at the back. The Rainier Beer Company originally used this building as Rainier Cold Storage, and it retains impressive 18-inch thick wooden braces and beams. In the past, horses pulled beer wagons up ramps right into the building, through the large loading dock doors that now enter my studio! Nowadays many artists have moved in and converted the building into a beehive of creativity, with stimulating interaction between different disciplines.
