 Watercolor painting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The forerunner of watercolor painting in Europe was buon fresco painting — wall-painting using pigments in a water medium on wet plaster.
Other famous artists have used watercolor painting to supplement their work with oil paint, including van Dyck (1599-1641), Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788), and John Constable (1776-1837).
Watercolor is a painting technique using paint made of colorants suspended or dissolved in water.

 Brief History of Watercolor Painting
Watercolor, also known in French as aquarelle, is generally described as painting with water-soluble pigments on paper.
This watercolor tradition began with topographical drawings that proliferated in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries as Britain began to grow as a world power.
American artists embraced watercolor as a primary medium equal to oil painting.

 watercolor painting on Encyclopedia.com
Many 19th-century painters used watercolor extensively, mostly for landscape paintings and sometimes for portraits, but it was no longer used for miniatures.
In this same manner watercolors were used during and after the Renaissance by such artists as Dürer, Rembrandt, Rubens, and Van Dyck to tint and shade drawings and woodcuts.
Long before oil was used in the preparation of pigment, watercolor painting had achieved a high form of sophistication.

 [ELFWOOD] Tutorials (FARP) / FARP : Watercolor Technique
Working a la prima is essentially the same and again can be done in any style of watercolor painting.
It is rather pricey, but believe me it is well worth it, it does not buckle, paint will not leak with any amount of water and can always be removed almost completely if a mistake is made.
I unfortunately must disprove that myth, in order to create in this medium there has to be an investment, although it is less than if you were to take up oil painting.

 WATERCOLOR
The excitement of blending watercolor with ink, pastel, collage and other water based media is one of the most addictive forms of expression.
The American Watercolor Society now accepts all aqua media (watercolor, acrylic, casein, gouache, egg tempera) but draws the line at collage and pastel.
My answer is, as long as what you paint is produced in a manner that guarantees the works permanence, fitting into a defined category is of little importance - unless you wish to enter the work in a show or competition where such definitions are enforced.
