Couple of Watercolor Landscape Sketches

Brush and paint right now for me feel very foreign.  It's like I'm starting all over again due to the long spell I didn't do much painting.  I'm trying to "feel" my way back by painting simple loose watercolor sketches - primarily using a flat brush for a change rather than my normal round.  I'm finding myself timid with color values as well. 

Also playing with a bristle flat to soften edges and a fan brush for a little texturing.
