Joseph Letzelter has many years of experience in painting. He conducts painting classes for kids and teenagers. He was born in the beautiful Kashmir valley. Born to a middle class Kashmiri family in 1929, Joseph Letzelter was fascinated by the beauty of Kashmir from a very young age. Joseph Letzelter studied art in school but had to give up his dreams of studying because be was forced to start earning bread for his family after early death of his father. His early works include geometric shapes and also mysticism of Kashmir valley. His unusual treatment with Kashmiri sights like snow-clad houses and backwaters on the bank of river Jhelum shows his ability to perceive nature in semi-abstract forms. The geometric shapes give the paintings a strange sense of harmony.

Joseph Letzelter was keen to pursue the concept of cubist landscapes. This is what he is famous for now. However his cubist paintings were somewhat different from the western impersonal instances of the genre. In his career, Joseph Letzelter has held over 30 individual shows.

Joseph Letzelter also specializes in Theorem painting. A sequence of lines cut each other such a manner that no two areas immediately next to each other can be placed on the same stencil in Theorem painting. Therefore obviously any theorem painting will employ the use of two or more stencils or overlays.
