Moleskine sketchbooks and watercolors

"It is no secret that Moleskine sketchbooks are not very friendly to watercolor. First it beads up, then if you rub it a bit it settles down, but it's still very unpredictable and hard to control. Since this paper was apparently intended for dry media such as pencil, I decided to try watercolor pencils. First I had to borrow back my watercolor pencils from my 7 year old daughter Izumi (I gave them to her when I thought I'd never use them again)."
