Help painting a French Provincial dresser.

Painting furniture has turned into a passion of mine.  I used to purchase art paper and watercolor sea life and mermaids.  Here are a few of my favorites.
The more children I had, the less I painted.
But know, I've found furniture and it's my new expression.
Sometimes I paint white (this dresser was going in the dumpster when I rescued it)
or black.
Red and gray turned out cool.
Baby blue?
Mint.
My personal favorite is always turquoise because the blue reminds me of the ocean.
But, this piece French provincial dresser, 81 inches long, I need your help.
Gorgeous, but I have had no interest in it at it's current 1970's colors.
What color should I paint it?  White?  Black? Something bolder?
Help!
