Non-textile simple solarized seps?

(1/2) > >>

tonypep:
For serigraphs (paper) I have a new Cannon Pro 100 printer with proper inks and films (not hooked up yet). No sep programs ( do not want to pay monthly fee) I have inquiries and opinions as how to proceed (do I need a rip for solarized non halftones?) Corel draw to scan and manipulate one color monotypes from an etching press to a negative/positive serigraph? I realize that this may be difficult to wrap your heads around but all comments and suggestions welcome.

Solarized?

tonypep:
Sorry to be vague but it is a photographic non halftone process that with practice I may be able to achieve without a (RIP) on film. I'll try to post some examples (perhaps vintage rock posters from the late sixties?)and pls forgive....the term solarized may not be accurate. Think of hard edge spot colors solids/lines/stipples etc with no gradients or dot patterns that are knocked out from each other  Perhaps with some help from Michel C and friends I can better get to where I want to be but any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance tp

Before "Posterization" was a Photoshop option, we would do it with a process camera. Take a black and white picture, and shoot several exposures without a halftone screen. The shortest exposure would give you a silhouette of the bulk of the image, and subsequent longer exposures removed more and more of the image until you got down to the very darkest part of the picture. Flashing hadn't been invented yet, so we would have make a number of masks using a contact frame to cut the parts out of each other. It could be fairly tedious. Photoshop of course, makes it much easier. I used to really love darkroom work back in the day.
