Hendriks, son of an arborist from Apeldoorn, was initially destined to follow into his father's footsteps. He attended the horticultural school in Boskoop, but finally opted for a career in the visual arts. He continued his studies at the Rijksacademie in Amsterdam, where he studied with Heinrich Campendonk. After graduating he developed into a versatile artist; painter, glass painting, wall painting, monumental artist, environmental artist, sculptor, ceramist and maker of mosaic.
Environmental works of Hendriks can be found in public space
in Amersfoort, Gouda and Hengelo. His paintings are characterized by geometric
shapes, in which he uses mathematical sequences, both in content and color.
