Willem Haenraets was born in Heerlen (Netherlands), November 9, 1940. His artistic talent was discovered at an early age.
At the age of sixteen, Willem began his studies at the Maastrich Academy of Arts. After four years of study, the Belgian government gave the talented student a scholarship, which allowed him to continue his studies at the National Institute of Fine Arts in Antwerp. There he soon had his own workshop. Willem Hanrats studied under the eminent professors Sarina and Vaarten. Experienced craftsmen were glad that a worthy replacement was growing and in every possible way contributed to the advancement of Willem. They saw in him a continuation of the traditions of the Belgian-Dutch school.
