Squinting removes colour so you see the light-dark pattern.
Value matters more than colour for showing form. A drawing with correct value but wrong colour still reads as solid; correct colour with flat value looks flat. When a picture feels weak, check the value range first.
To draw a sphere, place a highlight where light hits, blend down through midtones to the core shadow, add a hint of reflected light on the shadow side, and drop a cast shadow on the ground. The flat circle becomes a solid ball.
Value is lightness/darkness, shown on a value scale. Light on a form gives a highlight, midtones, core shadow, reflected light, and cast shadow. Strong value contrast and chiaroscuro model form and create a focal point.
