Thousand Spring: Fred Choate started his art career in the commercial arena, painting many of the Treasure Valley's iconic murals and trompe l'oeil facades. When the financial crisis hit and he lost nearly everything in 2008, he began focusing on his passion for painting in oils. Now, he is achieving new success and notoriety as a landscape painter.
