Founded by multi-awarded Filipino contemporary realist, Orley Yu Ypon, the atelier’s practice-based approach encourages students to master the foundations of painting while developing their styles and creative aspirations. 
 
It began as a casual gathering of local artists, a means for them to foster long-standing ties, to share common practices and philosophies in painting, and to introduce new aspirants in the field. Two years later, Aroma Art Atelier became incorporated as a non-profit organization, dedicated to helping emerging artists exercise their full potential by providing basic art training.​​​​​​​
Inspired from a native bush in Toledo City, Aroma Art Atelier speaks for resiliency and passion for the art and community. Taking inspiration from its name, Aroma is recognized by its thorns that define strength, tradition, and commitment to excellence. 
 

With the identity focused on the tradition of excellence and the commitment to student’s personal growth in representational art, color palettes resemble the classical art movement and added a touch of sophistication and prestige. 

In the pursuit of excellence, the atelier provides its students a safe space conducive to productivity and access to applied arts education with the right tools and materials where they can discuss freely with their mentors and turn theory into actual manifestations.
