Formally, training began at the American Academy of Art in Chicago, Hettinger learned classical realism and the techniques of the Flemish, Dutch and Spanish Masters. After four years at the academy, Hettinger moved to New York City where he studied with David Leffel and Richard Schmid. During his two years in Leffel's studio he painted still-life and figures, always working from live models. He learned the importance of working from life from Schmid and Leffel, and to this day attends life drawing sketch groups twice a week to keep his drawing skills fine-tuned. Since beginning his career as a professional artist he has had 21 one-man shows in galleries across the country. He is a master signature member of Oil Painters of America. He has won awards for his landscapes, still-life, and figurative paintings. His work has been reviewed in American Artist Magazine 1993, The Artist Magazine 2003 and International Artist 2004, and won the OPA Gold Medal Award in 2010.

Hettinger's paintings are in private collections around the globe. He focuses on figurative work drawn from life in his Aurora (IL) studio.
