IMO the white wall is off putting.

^^ Not sure what you mean. It won't be an accent wall, the whole kitchen is being repainted.

The framed and white matted art looks best

What accessories will you be using
on the top of the credenza?

"What accessories will you be using on the top of the credenza?"

Not sure. I would like a lamp; that's as far as I've gotten. I've not really been looking for anything because everything is waiting on the paint, that will change the look of things in there.

Hahaha. I love that picture; very humorous. Because a cow and the outdoor surrounding has texture, I would probably do a canvas print, unframed. Honestly, though, it would look good either in canvas or a matted frame print. The choice would make it more or less formal but perhaps a creamier white that is found in the picture would be better than that startling white you are showing us in the images.

You could do a thin black frame:

here's one without: I like the others better

I like canvas pieces unframed.

Canvas in a floating frame would be my vote.

Whether you get a matted print or a canvas, my personal preference is for a frame for your new friend Elsie. Enjoy!

I suggest a thin black frame and also suggest you decide what other decor you plan for the buffet before you hang your picture to make sure it's in the right place at the right height.

I really like the matting and framing, especially if the mat can match the new white of the walls. I wouldn’t want the canvas larger, because a very large piece of wall art will limit your choices in styling the credenza.

She looks great there. Thank you for sharing her with us!

Actually, I think the green pastures around her are a perfect fit! Also, because I'm painting one wall green in my LR now ;).

Good job, like lobo I like it on the green wall but, either way you were right getting it framed & matted.

Looks fabulous!
