Would anyone know where a sculptor can find work in canada?

my skill covers action figures, Halloween masks, busts, relief work, dental labratory work, and many others. I am capable of sculpting in a wide array of mediums and also have molding and casting skills working in various urethanes and silicones.





I'm looking for a full time position. Freelance has more drawbacks than perks, so I'm looking for something more constant like a full time position.

Have you tried applying in dental labs?


Find out if there are toymakers.


Theater set design (need a lot of carpentry skills too).


A lot of sculptors seem to do construction work/rehabbing houses.


Check out large car companies if they also design new cars. Car design models are actually still built from oil based clay and I know at least sculptors to have gotten well paid internships.


If you have a masters degree in art you can look for teaching jobs at universities (though if you don't have a good exhibition record I guess adjunct is your best bet).


You can generally look for teaching jobs, though depending where and what you might need additional formal qualifications.


You can try to get paid by some famous sculptor and join their studio, a lot don't do their own work, they design and get somebody else do at least a lot of their work.


A foundry may hire you for mold making.
Reply:I will add prosthetics labs, they use sculptors to make the pieces and there is some paintings and sealing required.


This will increase your knowledge of different materials as a perk.


You could become a forensic sculptor too and work with the local police departments.


I will suggest you to make a website and keep your freelance work on the side.


Another options would be in a foundry, casting models for other artists work.

Do you understand just how much  accountant Sunshine Coast? The Australian Government in late 2015 posed some innate changes to the Bankruptcy Laws in Australia. One of the most significant of these is the length of time that a person is bankrupt for.
