INDEX
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Broad Ripple Gazette we are featuring a year of local artists by allowing them to interpret our banner, while incorporating the words “The Broad Ripple Gazette”.

The A.M. Gallery at 6556 N. Cornell Avenue on the Monon Trail shares the same address with A.M. Real Estate Resources, which donates 10 percent of its proceeds to the local arts. “Basically, we rotate artists’ work every two months and only display local artists. The first artists shown here were Megan Jefferson and Jaime Locke, who co-created painted wood carved mandalas. Megan does abstract paintings and worked on the co-piece with Jaime, so they combined their two styles of art. Joel Washington, who is a janitor at the IU-Bloomington campus, is a painter whose work recently appeared here. An image he created of guitar icon Jimi Hendrix was shown at the U.S. Embassy in Bangkok, Thailand and was also featured on the front cover of the Art in Embassies Exhibition publication there. The princess of Thailand, who attended the exhibit, purchased a couple of his paintings. (Samples of his work are at: joelwashingtonart.blogspot.com). His work was shown along with fellow Indiana artists John Dumont, Robert Indiana, James Spencer Russell and Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. He has a bold color palette inspired by the Beatles, Yellow Submarine,” J.J. Canull explained. He and his brother, Zac, co-own the Broad Ripple area art gallery and real estate agency. A.M. Gallery opened last May before the annual Broad Ripple Art Fair. The real estate area is next to the studio portion of the business when customers enter. The residence is one of many on the Monon Trail that date back nearly 100 years. A.M. Real Estate dates back 35 years when Zac and JJ’s father, Jim, started the company. A number of artists working in different mediums are getting exposure there. “There was a photographer named Jedidiah Johnson, a A.M. Gallery & teacher of the arts in Chicago Real Estate Resources who recently moved back to Indianapolis, his hometown. He 6556 N. Cornell Ave. creates visually interesting, high(317) 848-1588 resolution paintings. We’re still www.amrelo.com looking for the next artists to be lined up here in June and are here daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday,” he added. On weekends they are open by appointment only. Artists can call 848-1588 or e-mail: jjcanull@ amrelo.com. Potential home owners and home sellers can also use this same address and e-mail. “I want to pick artists that aren’t well-known in the Indiana area, but have potential. They don’t have to be edgy… but I like me some edge. As the shows appear, their times and dates will be listed on our website, www.amrelo.com (shared with A.M. Real Estate Resources).
