Natural tones and compositions of original environment can sometimes become hazy. In that case, use your imagination in using Christmas colours. However, don’t paint the sky green and the water red. You are free to paint the Christmas objects from the hues of your palette without being weird. White and red go well with Christmas. So, do white and blue, red with green and white with green. Red, green and gold give a Christmas filled with sunshine.

It amuses me that you advise against green skies -- precursors to thunderstorms at best and tornadoes at worst -- and red waters -- indicators of algal blooms or excessive iron.
One of the artists I've met brought up free-hand drawings, as opposed to coloring books, as to how and why she became a creative professional. She encouraged her daughter (who became a doctor!) and her grandchildren to do likewise.
So this Christmas activity really gladdens me. It's something that can be compiled Christmas after Christmas as part of family histories.
