Statement Art For The Breakfast Area

Sometimes walls are hard to decorate, at least for me.  I love all those fabulous gallery walls that are so popular now - -

but they just aren't what I think is right for the breakfast room wall.

This space is only 9 ft. wide, so there isn't room for a buffet on the wall behind the table, 

however - - -

the wall does scream for something of importance. 

 I love mirrors and I have this really great round one that I thought could work in the breakfast area.   It turned out it was ok, but not sure  - -

As I was walking through our bedroom, I saw a beautiful outdoor canyon/meadow scene painting that I have had for years and years.  It is huge and was just filling space on one wall in our bedroom.

  Not a focal point and not really part of that rooms decor,

                                     it was the only wall space I had big enough to hold it.

This is a really large painting - 3 1/2 x 4 1/2.  It hung on our family room wall in our previous home.  That wall had huge vaulted ceilings and needed something large.  

This breakfast area has 9 1/2 ft. ceilings, so a large piece of art would work.

                          Since the horse painting is part of this same room,

                                            a pastoral scene fits - - -

Now as far as the painting goes, I like it for a change,

 but you know things don't stay the same around here for long,

 so it might change again any day.

 I can always put the mirror back or my praying man painting.  (BTW, I hung  the praying man next to the china cabinet in the dining area.  Looks fabulous there.)
