Dionn Reneé paints her way from the film "The Woman King" to real-life Woman King, Queen Diambi

originally published: 12/20/2022


(NEW YORK, NY)  -- The recently released groundbreaking film The Woman King created an opportunity for international fine artist Dionn Reneé to meet and create an original painting for the real-life ‘woman king,’ Queen Diambi of the Democratic Republic of Congo and Brazil’s Bantu nation.

Dionn Reneé created portraits that capture the essence of the Queen’s regal demeanor and spirit. They were presented to Her Majesty during recent events held by the United Nations Assembly, (CUNY) New York University, and The New York Women’s Foundation. Queen Diambi received the paintings with sincere gratitude and welcomed Dionn‘s pledge to partner in her philanthropic endeavors.

“It is an honor to portray such a strong woman in my art. Coming off of the successful global marketing campaign from the film, and then to meet an actual real-life Queen - one whose purpose and mission align with my own - is truly the highlight of my art career,” says Dionn.

Dionn Reneé is recognized for her work as a fine artist, graphic designer, and photographer throughout the entertainment industry. She has painted portraits of Oprah Winfrey, Whoopi Goldberg, and Maya Angelou, who gladly accepted her painting and displayed the tribute portrait in her office.  

In addition to her artistry, Dionn Reneé is in the process of launching The Dionn Renee Studios, as well as DRW Advertising, both of which will operate out of Harrisburg, PA in early 2023.
