4 New Water Fairies coloring pages

 Many Fairies are also known as Water Fairies.

Today's new drawings on this free coloring pages blog

are all drawings of different Water Fairies.

There will be several drawings.  I am posting more right now. 

Flumenia the River Fairy

Flumenia is a River Fairy.  She is seen here in the shallows by the near the bank.  The far bank can be seen in the background.  You know that she is not mortal-sized because you can see the size of the leaves.  These leaves are a willow leaf, a pair of elm leaves, and two oak leaves. 

All Fairies can change size from their natural size of about 5 inches or 12.7 cm tall.  Flumenia is choosing to be about twice her natural height.  Although I know it is spring right now in Utah, USA, this drawing is from the early autumn because a few leaves are seen in the river.  We have Chinese Elm trees, Willow trees, and oak trees in Utah.  The scrub oak or Quercus gambelii is the native oak tree.  It is a very bushy tree.  It is also called the Gambel's Oak.  

Flumenia's name is based on the Latin word for river.  All these Fairies have names based on Latin words that describe their preferences.  Latin is the original ancient language adopted by Fairies.  

Lilium the Lilypad Fairy

Lilium is a Lilypad Fairy.  She also is partial to Dragonflies so I guess you could call her a Dragonfly Fairy as well. She likes to hang out on lilypads during the day.  These lilypads are found on ponds and small lakes so she could be called a Pond Fairy or Lake Fairy as well.  Lilium means Lilly in Latin.

 

Amnis the Stream Fairy

Amnis is a young female Fairy. She is seen here hovering over a small stream.  

Stream Fairies prefer small streams instead of wider rivers.  

Cataractia the Waterfall Fairy

Cataractia likes waterfalls.  I have written about Waterfall Fairies before. They like to fly into the falls and get a ride down into or just above the water.  Her name is very close to the Latin name for waterfall.  In this drawing, Cataractia is in mortal form.  Since she is by a cascading waterfall... which is really several small waterfalls, she will need to go to Fairy size to dart into the falling water.  IF she were at a larger waterfall, like Niagra Falls, then she could dart into the falling streams of water in her mortal size.  But Cataractia prefers smaller waterfalls.  Personally, I love waterfalls too.

You might have noticed that Cataractia has lace-wings.  Her name is based on the Latin word for waterfall.  If that makes you wonder about the word "cataracts" then I think it refers to how a waterfall looks like white water or a fuzzy white curtain.  That is why the eye condition is called cataracts.
