Bio
Royel Bijou was born out of a desire to honor my grandfather who always supported me and my wacky ways. I used the letters in his name to create Royel and Bijou just means beautiful which I feel, he was a beautiful soul. I bet you're wondering who I am, well I am a mother of three. I am a poet, a recycle/up-cycle artist and I am a fashion designer who teaches dance. Try saying that four times fast. For the past 20 years I have gotten involved in making art by reusing and recycling what I already have in my possession. Every piece is made from sustainable materials. Nothing can be reproduced. Through this, I have found a wonderful medium to turn trash into beautiful works of art.
That is not all I do. As you will soon see on this site, I use my many gifts and talents in the literary world, as well as dance and fashion to teach people ways to unleash their creative minds. I find that by using these skills I can be one of many who can build a community with others and strengthen the stagnant brains to think outside themselves. I want to bring together collective souls that encourage, strengthen, and have them support one another. I will embody a pathway for people to explore themselves internally and externally. I am comical and silly and I truly enjoy bringing people from all walks of life together to share, to explore, to uplift through art.
