Do you know what a diamond is? Diamonds are super special rocks that come from deep inside the Earth. They're the hardest natural material on our planet, which means they're really, really strong!

Diamonds are made of a special kind of stuff called carbon. Yes, just like the pencil you use for drawing! But, diamonds are very old friends—they take about a billion years to form under the Earth's surface where it's super hot and pressurized.

Diamonds are famous for their sparkle. When light shines on them, they reflect and refract the light, making them twinkle and shine. They come in different colors too, like clear, yellow, blue, and even pink!

Diamonds are brought to the surface by something called volcanic eruptions. Imagine a big explosion that shoots diamonds up from the Earth's hot core! After that, people find them in a place called a mine. Miners work very hard to dig them out.

People love diamonds because they're so beautiful and strong. They use them to make jewelry, like rings, necklaces, and bracelets. Some people even get diamond rings when they want to get married!

The biggest diamond ever found was called the Cullinan Diamond. It was as big as a tennis ball! Can you imagine how sparkly that must have been? For today's drawing tutorial, let's follow the step-by-step instructions to learn how to draw a big diamond!
