Twilight Colours

I'm fortunate enough to now own and enjoy using a significant range of Winsor & Newton Professional Watercolour paints.  But one of my favourite colours is a tube of Sanguine Red from their Twilight Colours range.

The keen eyed amongst you may have noticed that particular colour popping up in my recent A5 sized Elephant image.  Sanguine red has a real vibrancy to it.  I'm also using half pans in the main, and I know that half pans are semi-moist.  So I expected tubed watercolour paint to dry out and be unusable.  But for some reason that's not the case, and dried paint on the palette re-works when water is added with the brush.
