Your latest is really good food for thought! I like what I see. If I wasn't backlogged with everything else that I'm doing, I would seriously consider writing an intermediate Inkscape tutorial series and, with your permission, include techniques that you are showing the world. Consider your time, energy, imagination, and persistence to explore validated! Best wishes as always, Roy
Kind, sir, Roy. Thank you. Feel free to do "whatever", if ever, with any thing I share with Inkscape. I think we are all busy and it is good "journeyin' along" with you and others. Let us keep on tapping one another on the shoulders and pointing out all the bounty we see and we experience in our lives. Luv on the ones you got and be open to their love as well. Thank you again!
Your last image makes me think. I used the chalk and sponge filter in one of my tutorials to imitate drawing with charcoal. Your experiment with dithering produces a similar result but with a finer grain. It's worth exploring combinations of the two filters to simulate different applications of a charcoal stick, such as strokes and fill using light pressure, heavier pressures, and different degrees of hardness of the charcoal stick. I like small and subtle details like these. They add a distinctive quality of class to your artwork. Good show, sir! Please carry on, Roy
Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials Experimenting in Feb. 2022

Hey, Inkscape explorers.
Here are a few graphics where I have experimented with the many goodies that are part of Inkscape.
My "thrust" again is to invite you to travel the highways and byways and see, discover, and enjoy the creative landscapes you will find.
In particular, these ideas can bring about results that resemble textures, foliage, and other stuff.
I am sure you are a few minutes away from artistic design and adventure. Have a great time!
