How can you tell if a tube of paint is watercolor or acrylic if it isn't labeled?

Acrylic is not water soluble once dry. Watercolor can be reactivated with water.Dilute a small amount of paint in the normal manner for painting and make a brush stroke on a piece of scrap paper. Wash out your brush. Let the paint stroke dry for 20 minutes and then try to re-wet it with a brush full of water. If it re-wets and smears, it's watercolor. If it remains untouched, it's acrylic.

How does the Chinese technique in watercolor differ from that of Western watercolor artists?

1) In Chinese watercolor, the brush is loaded intentionally with a gradation of the paint -- deep at the tip and gradually lighter towards the back. 2) In Chinese watercolor, strokes are made in such a way that the picture develops from spontaneous randomness in the stroke and loading of paint. The details are not entirely deliberate -- whatever develops, develops. This spontaneous development is of course, doesn't mean uneducated randomness.
