I really appreciate @Lucy68 for your reply.

In the post, it was said that partial coloring with non-toxic paints is fine for an aesthetic look, and since new growth will arrive sooner, the plant will adopt continuous growth in the growing seasons. So as a succulent, aloe vera can thrive till then with minimal risk of dying.
