about I like
your work
I Like Your Work is dedicated to supporting artists, creating community and providing opportunities and resources. Our podcast interviews creative people from painters and artists to collectors and curators. People who are involved in a creative lifestyle and also in building community within the arts. I Like Your Work is hosted by artist and curator Erika b Hess.
I Like Your Work has expanded to include Studio Visit Artists and exhibitions. Studio Visit Artists are artists making great work that we want to share. You can see their work on the site and on our social media. We also partner with galleries and curators to curate shows both in gallery spaces and permanently on our site. All artists who apply are considered for future shows and to have their work shared on our social media.
