Suggestions about how to do this, or what tool I should be using to do this, are welcome.
You could try insetting your path a few times (on the path menu) and giving each new path a slightly lighter colour. That said, I've just tried it on an ellipse and it wasn't very good.
You might also like to try doing 'tile clones' and setting it to lighten each one slightly and scale each one down slightly, but I think you might have trouble getting that to do anything more complicated than an elliptical gradient, which is a bit of a shame.
