‘It is my desire to use Scottish hardwoods in new and challenging ways without compromising the beauty or dignity of the timber' 

Michael McManus  Sculptor was born and brought up in Bonnyrigg and has lived and worked in the Lothians all his life. 

He left school to immediately begin work in a craft that had been his calling from a very early age, simply loving the creative satisfaction that he derived from carving, shaping and finishing natural wood. He has been a professional woodcarver sculptor for over 30 years.
