Mixed Media Monday Challenge: It's Not All Black & White

(click on image to enlarge!)
This piece was created for the Monday Challenge of "It's Not All Black & White"  It is a done on a canvas with acrylics and the texture is created with left-over colored floss from my stitching endevours. It got a little darker then I would have liked, but I had this vision in my head of the galaxy, black, with white stars scattered, but the color coming from planets like Earth scattered here and there.
