If it is just about spraying ink (21st century Jackson Pollock?) then shouldn't
Inkjet then be relegated to some painting list some where?

Seriously though, the Inkjet crowd has several nice lists of their own to play on.
This seems to be the only place to go for platinum, palladium, gum, cyanotype etc.
Why can't we leave it at that?

For those of us who have tried the inkjet approach and found it wanting, it is nice
to have a place where such frivolity is avoided as the consumerist diversion that it
is and traditional methods are still respected.
