    One of the things I use Inkscape for, is making coloring pages, or maybe someday, a coloring book.  Ideally, the profits would be donated back to Inkscape project.

    Mostly I only have skills for making abstract drawings.  But I've connected with a few other people who might be interested in make other kind of drawings.

    I'll attach a few examples.  Hhmm, I'll have to put a white background on them first....  I'll be back shortly with example.

    Edit

    Ok, let's see how these show up on that dark gray background....

    Oh cool.  I've been thinking lately about drawing coloring books for adults too.  I was thinking an animal line, like cats. 

    Where/how would you sell it? 

    I'd be happy to contibute if I ever come up with a decent design.

    Thanks everyone.  I'll keep you in mind.

    I hope by the time I ever get around to figuring out how to put them into a book, Inkscape will have a store where we can sell custom things -- custom artwork, clothing with custom designs, calendars, etc, etc.  Right now, all we can do is sell a limited set of products with a couple of different logos.

    funny, i was thinking "wonder what other inkscape users are doing for coloring book usage" and of course my search pops up something @brynn has done. Great work! I've been working on some vector objects to use in coloring pages! (Sample attached)

     

    I love your use of repeated patterns! I would love to learn how to do that for some background work i've had in my head. :) Any tips you could give?

    Hi there @brynn, I love the designs. Quite incredible. I would love to know how you did the interwoven rope effect in the last image.

    Hello Brynn,

    Nice drawings! I hope to make a coloring book too. Making coloring pages is my passion.
