This seems like the solution. However when I try:
I[1]: plt.plot(range(10))
I[2]: plt.ylabel(r"{\color{red} a red text}")
It doesn't function and produce an ugly set of error messages:
I[3]: ERROR: An unexpected error occurred while tokenizing input
The following traceback may be corrupted or invalid
The error message is: ('EOF in multi-line statement', (573, 0))

Interestingly tex_demo.py works fine and renders the text properly onto the
figure.
