The reflection of light off of the tiny ionic particulates emanating from the earthquake fracture zone causes the colors you see in the sky and air around these zones. Depending on the elemental make-up of the particles, the color may be purple in one zone and greenish yellow in another zone.
You are very observative! Most people do not see these colorations out of fear or concern about other matters at the time of the earthquake, and are not focused on seeing what is really occurring!

Did you feel the earthquake? I did not notice that the sky changed color.
