a ' watercolour ' like effect can be achieved with oils as well, just requires that you heavily thin your paints with turpintine. Its also much more forgiving then watercolors as well, as once you make a mark with watercolors its a done deal. With oils, fixing a mistake is as easy as wiping your canvas clean with a rag.
Just some food for thought for a fellow artist
