According to the RKD he learned to paint from his father, the painter Adriaenus Hoevenaar and later Pieter Christoffel Wonder.[1] His brothers Cornelis Willem and Nicolaas Ludolph were also painters.[1] His works were shown at exhibitions in The Hague and Amsterdam during the years 1828-1863, and his drawings in sepia were popular in his time.[1] His pupils were David van der Kellen Jr. and his son Jozef Hoevenaar, who drew his portrait.[1] He is known for genre works with figures, often portrayed in vintage Dutch costumes.[1]
