Wilen's art is created from a variety of materials. The core is usually
cut or carved paper forming the shapes upon which pigments and patinas
are laid. Through his art Drew explores the interaction of media and
gesture. His finished pieces capture the dialogue between the artist
and the materials with which he works.
