Although I normally do work like this in some kind of ink, this time around, I decided to give Dr PH Martin's concentrated liquid watercolors a whirl. They come packaged like inks, in small glass bottles with an eyedropper in the lid. No weird chalky paint cakes here.
I have to say, they behaved better than I expected. The aqua color I blended interacted with the water and my special Italian paper similarly to a fountain pen ink, and dried almost as transparently as an ink. Liquid watercolor proved to be a very flexible medium on and off the page. While it's no substitute for ink, it's definitely improved my overall opinion of watercolor paints.
