I actually got one step further already. After studying Inkscape for a while, I finally managed to make some kind of logo, without tutorial. More to come that's for sure.

Check it on the left, my dancing girl autumn tree. Using some blur, drawing a silhouette, inventing some flower motif, it's all there.

For those looking for some inspiration once in a while, I recommend to check out The Inspiration Stream, it's a site full of beauties, and well worth the watch, I love it anyway...

I just like the old wallpaper feel! A paisley design is about the closest you can get to that in my opinion. There are so many of them, and I gave it a try in Inkscape as well.

The Very Simple Designs tutorial is nice to get started, but really, once you get the hang of it, just let go and follow your instinct.

It took me a while to figure out how to create a seamless pattern, but in the end I got it, using the allign tool and the clipping tool. Any questions will be answered gladly, but for now I just wanted you to see my result on the left.

 
For those who are new to Inkscape, I suggest to check out (what's in a name?) Very Simple Designs. Amazing how detailed the instructions, and how wonderful the results!! All of those works above are based on the tutorials... Especially, I'm a huge fan of country shading.

I just followed another tut, you can check it here. Places to develop your inkscape skills are really everywhere on the net, but I adore the selection of the official site the most I guess. Some amazing stuff can be found there!!
For those who think freeware is not able to compete with other professional programs, check this out. 
Inkscape is a goldmine, just learn how to dig!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Based on Noclayto tutorial
Ha, in this factory, it's all about the process. The results may follow along, but foremost it has to be fun! And believe me Inkscape is a perfect tool for that, for beginners (like me) to masters all over the globe.

And why not start with a few tutorials, just to get the hang of it? This one is made by Noclayto, and I just love it. Check it out here. Have fun...
