Can you use dried watercolor tubes?

Dry watercolor paint is not the end of the world. It will dry slowly on the palette ​but remain usable like a watercolor pan. Unlike acrylics, watercolor paint remains water-soluble when dry, so you can always “reactivate” it with a wet brush. Cut open the tube so you can access the paint.

Watercolors. Keep all your watercolors airtight, dry, and clean and don’t stuff water/wetting agents directly back down into tubes of paint as it won’t rehydrate them evenly. Shelf life: 2 – 3 years depending on your binding agent, could potentially last for 10-15 years if you want to re-hydrate the paint yourself.
