Biography
In July, 2024, Lürzer's Archive's ACE Report (Annual of Creative Excellence) ranked Big Al Gruswitz #2 in the top ten Digital Artists in the U.S.A. Selected by Lürzer's Archive for the 2013, 2021, 2023, and 2025 "200 Best Digital Artists Worldwide" Annual. Since 1994, Boundless Creativity by Big Al Gruswitz has specialized in 3D and 2D photorealistic illustrations, medical illustration, plus difficult retouching and now includes AI Imaging.
Celebrating nearly 60 years in advertising! (30 years as an AD/ACD primarily in NYC at Saatchi & Saatchi and 30 years in my own business.) I have never lost my enjoyment and enthusiasm for working in advertising. I strive to produce the highest-quality illustration that meets and exceeds the art director's expectations on every job, large or small.
Though most of my clients are advertising agencies, 14 years ago I completed 33 3D dinosaur illustrations for the Discovery Channel's "My First Dinosaur Encyclopedia." Also, Smith Micro, makers of Poser, selected one of my illustrations to be on the box of their "Poser Debut." They selected the image from all the samples users have submitted to their website.

No matches have been found, but this doesn’t mean the work you are looking for is not in the archive. Please use these tips to improve your search results:
- Use a single search term in the search bar, and then use the filters on the left hand side to refine the results further. For example, if you are searching for Heinz adverts from a particular agency, search for either Heinz or the agency in the search bar, and then select the client (Heinz) or the agency with the filters.
- You can refine with further filters, such as photographer or country
- You can also search within magazines or books by first selecting the publication from the two dropdowns above, and then entering your search term
- Lürzer's Archive contains thousands of adverts going back four decades. All the data for this work has been added by our users, and over time brands and agencies may have changed their names, or work may have been entered under a range of client names - for example, VW could also have been added as Volkswagen. So it is worth trying a range of spellings, as well as widening your definitions and trying different search terms.
We are continuously trying to improve our search so please contact us with any feedback.
