that's part of what i love about saul bass' work...
it all looks like it was cut from paper free hand and then pasted together...
in an almost childlike fashion...
reminds me of matisse's CUT PAPER art from the end of his life...
i LOVE cut paper...

Agree one-hundred-percent! I've been around at sever3al graphic design forums and it's a very small percentage of work that is anywhere near handmade. It seems like today, it's all about photoshop. I am currently studying graphic design and personally I'm abit disappointed with the equipent we have, because we has (state of the art, by all means) computers, software, cameras, lights and videoequipment. I want cuttingboards and other physical things myself. I haven't quite have had the "guts" to explore graphic design physical before a while ago, and it felt SO satisfying to actually touch and interact with your works! I'm crossing my fingers for a physical revolution in graphic design! ^^
