Phil Jarvis, January 2012 Artist of the Month
I started working with Phil Jarvis in the 1980's when he was a sign painter at B&N Signs and I worked in advertising for two major St. Louis area home builders. Through the years, Phil and his associates at B&N, collaborated with us on directional and monument entry signage for over 30 new home communities in St. Louis and St. Charles Counties. Places like The Vineyards, Twin Chimneys and WingHaven, in St. Charles County and Barrington Downs, Baxter Ridge and Lake Chesterfield, in St. Louis County. If you live in any one of those communities, the chances are real good that B&N's directional signs helped you find your new home and their monument entry signs welcome you on your way home from work every night.

"Due to the falling economy and housing decline of 2008, I was sadly laid off from B&N Signs, where I was employed for over 30 years. It was a blessing in disguise. I immediately began accepting work for signs and murals around my neighborhood, Benton Park West, in South St. Louis City. From there my reputation as an artist has grown. The work I do now is more creative and more challenging than anything I was able to accomplish working at B&N. I can finally bring my skills learned as a sign painter and my love for making art together." Phil Jarvis
