Author Description:
Nyx was the primordial goddess of the night. A shadowy figure, Nyx stood at or near the beginning of creation, and was the mother of personified gods such as Hypnos (sleep) and Thánatos (death). Her appearances in mythology are sparse, but reveal her as a figure of exceptional power and beauty. She was the only god or goddess which Zeus feared.

Suggestion for background: Bigger moon, a lot less loopy stars....

Okay, I toned down the star swirls, but didn't eliminate them completely. As far as the moon, I'd rather it not overshadow Nyx. As unrealistic as much of the image is, I don't think that you would see the moon in the sky larger than the size it is in my entry. Thank you for the suggestions, CMYK46.
