Thought I would share some textures I've made.

Two zoomed-out seamless grassy ground textures made from
https://ambientcg.com/view?id=Ground037 to use in your projects.

Still # v1, but it would be cool if you link me if you like my work / find it useful.

Adv: I'd make a mask from Perlin noise for blending them with e/o or other textures for variety: Use level adjusts to crush the clouds to blotchy B&W, and then make that a mask on the top layer.

A man pushes a bicycle laden with hats and baskets along a narrow street of tall, brightly coloured buildings. Wires crisscross overhead and there are some trees in the background.
A high rise building in Saigon where every apartment has its own branding sign on the front for a very colourful scene. There are four trees and a planted flowerbed area at the front of the building, with some people sitting on benches.
A tight crop of red and purple azaleas growing along a riverbank, with their bright colours reflected in the water.
A doe stands alert, looking at the camera, in a hazy field of green-brown grass and dandelion clocks.

A Greek cafe. The rough plaster walls are painted pastel teal, with the door and window frames a darker blue. There are small tables and chairs outside in red, that match the red tiling of the pavement. It's a quaint scene.
A wide wooden pier with some trees growing from it. There's a person standing at the far end of the pier, holding a red umbrella. It's raining and the pier is wet and the sky drab and misty.
A coypu standing in shallow muddy water next to some reeds. It's very round and is holding its paws up to its mouth.
Looking along a canal edged with grass, white flowers, and trees, with a nice dirt path alongside. There are two barges on the canal, a house in the distance, and a canal bridge at the far end.

A woman reclining on an easy chair. She's wearing ripped jeans and a white vest and there's a pair of sandals dangling from her hand. She has her head turned to one side and her eyes closed, and the light falling on her makes it seem that she's enjoying the sunlight. There are long grey curtains falling behind her.
A close up of a bouquet of flowers where the flowers fill the frame. The majority are white and peach roses, but there are also little pink flowers and black spiny thistles with some muted green leaves.
A top down photo of a variety of pumpkins filling the frame, with some bananas and lemons and limes scattered about. The image tones are all warm yellows and oranges specked with green.
A portrait of an androgynous figure from the chest upwards. They have jaw-length black hair that's in loose, partially wet waves. They're wearing several pearl necklaces in a variety of lengths with different sized pearls, and long dangling earrings. Their blouse is white with a wide square neck, and of a thin fabric. The background is a soft blue-to-grey gradient. Their expression is neutral, perhaps slightly downcast.

Inside a spacious, airy temple-like building with old Indian architecture and columns in intricate stonework.
A woman crouches down tending to a fire beneath a row of small clay pots. The air around her is hazy with smoke.
A cluster of four-petalled lilac flowers dominates the frame. Some of them are fully open, and some are still buds. The background is a blurred vivid green and purple with some bokeh.
A rickety wooden house sits on a flat dirt plain, with some rolling hills and mountains in the distance. The sky is partly overcast and the tone of the image is cool icy blues and pastel browns.

A man sitting on a tree stump in a forest. His legs are crossed and he's resting his chin in his hand and looking slightly upwards in a thoughtful pose.
A woman wearing loose pastel pink clothing is leaning back against a grey wall and looking up at the sky. She's standing on a red brick cobbled street lined with bare trees, and there are some autumn leaves trailing down from vines over her head.
A misty, early morning scene of a wooden cabin on a little island in a small lake. There's smoke rising from a pipe chimney, and the sky is graduating from golden yellow to a dark grey-blue. The grass looks frosty.
Looking through a conservatory doorway at a cozy seating space inside. The door and frames are painted pale blue and the paint is chipped and peeling. The room inside has a rough wooden floor, and at the back there's a plush chair covered in patterned fabric with a brightly coloured cushion on it. There's a metal and weave basket propping the door open, and there are plants growing all around. In the middle frame of the door glass, there's a paper flower, yellow with a green middle. It's a rustic, 'cottage core' scene.

The pretty cobbled town square of Rothenburg ob der Tauber in Germany, with the photo focus on the traditional gothic half-timbered buildings, as seen from behind some pink flowers on the left of frame that are blurred in the foreground.
A mountainscape in predominantly browns and yellows, where a still water lake lies nestled between rolling slopes that climb into a rocky cliff in the background. There's a little island in the middle of the lake with a sole leafless tree on it, and in the foreground, sheep graze in the long dry grass.
A hazy cityscape in warm pastels, looking across a wide, still river to an arched bridge with domed buildings in the background that reflect in the water.
A symmetrically composed photograph of the front of an ornate brick building with large arched windows and wide double doors, through which can be seen mingling tourists in front of some kind of monument. The foreground of the photo is a mossy cobbled courtyard.

A warbling white-eye (a small olive-green bird with a buff stomach and a white ring around its eye) perched on a branch of white blossoms.
A pine forest with a narrow asphalt road and a dirt track seen through mist, where the sunlight is pushing through from the canopy and making streaks of light.
A schoolgirl leaning against a subway wall reading a book. She's standing on the middle of a stairwell and the camera is looking down at her. The floor is red brickwork, and the walls are green tiles, with lots of pleasing lines and angles.
A house and a few connected buildings and a signal tower on top of a rocky coastal cliff. The sea stretches out a dark grey-blue behind, beneath a sunset sky that's bathing everything in a warm orange light. There's a narrow road just visible winding up the hill with a wind-swept tree growing sideways, and lots of big smooth boulders. There's a couple in hiking gear sitting on one of the boulders, and a picnic table just visible partly off-frame to the left.

A massive waterfall cascades over high cliffs. At the bottom, a tiny person in white trousers and a red jacket stands on a pebbled riverbed.
A cherry tree in a field of grass against a blue sky. The photo's perspective is from the ground, with the grass in the foreground out of focus and blurred.
A cute border collie in chocolate brown with a white chest and white snout is grinning happily at the camera with bright yellow eyes. There are little paper daisies arranged along the dog's snout and around its eyebrows like a tiara. The background is pink.

A low-light evening photograph of a stone arch bridge crossing a still river between old brick buildings. There's a hill covered with broad leaf trees in the background. The water is reflecting the scene, and a few lights on the bridge bathe the brickwork in a warm yellow glow.
A wooden building on a riverbank in a thick forest. There's a little waterfall on the far side of the building, and some of the visible tree branches are covered in thick moss. There's a light mist that makes the scene look hazy.
Orange leaves grow from slender partly-bare branches that come into the scene from the borders of the image. There's a background heavily blurred trees with some hazy bokeh. The overall tone is warm and autumnal.

A tree-lined narrow asphalt road. There's a triangular sign on the left, facing away from the camera. The trees are in neat rows and cast striped shadows on the road; their leaves are orange-brown, and blur into bokeh closest to the camera.
A mountain range in Norway casting soft reflections on a still lake. There's a thin layer of mist hovering above the lake's surface, and the sky is a pastel gradient of pink to blue.
A still life composition of yellow gerbera daisies arranged in a little metal watering can on a wooden surface. There's one flower underneath the can, and some fallen petals. The backdrop is a soft dark brown, and the overall tone of the picture is warm and muted.

A photograph of narrow, pointed red leaves that fill the frame.
A modern building with concrete path and flowerbeds in the foreground. The building is symmetrically aligned in the frame, with a yellow and grey stairwell in the middle, and the building extending on either side with tall narrow windows and yellow balcony railings.

A little bird with black and white-striped wings, a buff body and a yellow head sits on a leafless branch.
Wild red poppies growing in a field, against a blurred green background
A snow-covered flat foreground with some wooden fencing visible leads to a big wooden barn, the roof snow-capped, that stands in front of cresting hills covered with snowy pine trees, under a cloudy grey sky.
A woman stands against a colourful graffitied wall, looking town towards the ground. Her long wavy hair is bleached blond and she's wearing pink-tinted frameless sunglasses. She has studs on both nostrils and a bar through her lower lip. She's wearing a heavy gold chain, and matching cropped strappy vest and skirt in a pattern that's a blue cloudy sky with some cherubs flying around. Her midriff is bare and her bellybutton is pierced. She has some tattoos; "WARRIOR" and a floral decorated heart on her chest, and some cursive writing and various images on her arms.

Enjoy!
A whale tail breaking through a calm blue ocean, trailing rivulets of white foamy water in its wake
A stack of three bowls against a pastel pink background. The bowls have three different geometric patterns on them; the bottom bowl is blue, the middle is pink, and the top is yellow. They are stacked at jaunty angles.
A waterfall cascades over a cliff onto rocks below, and then passes under a pretty grey stone bridge before dropping over another cliff. The cliff at the back is flat warm rock dappled with green. The foreground cliff rises into verdant verges on either side of the bridge, with pine trees growing on the left and some spindly broad-leaf trees on the right.
A man sitting on a stool in front of a plain white wall. The photograph is cropped just below the man's shoulders. He is wearing a white long-sleeved sweater with the sleeves pulled up above his elbows, and light brown trousers with tan desert boots with yellow laces. His right arm is crossed in front of him and resting on his lap, and his left arm is stretched out with his hand resting on his left thigh. The paint on the stool he's sitting on is a weathered, peeling mint green, and the wall behind him is cracked with the white paint greying at the bottom.

A low camera angle photo looking through the open doorway of an old wooden building on stone brick foundations. There are red and yellow fallen leaves everywhere, and a rusted lantern on the doorstep. Inside, the room is dark, with light being let in from an empty back window pane and some holes in the roof. There are some fallen beams of wood visible, a stone structure, and something covered in a dirty off-white tarpaulin.
A yellow crop field in the foreground leads to some low barns and a sole wind turbine in the middle of the frame. The sky takes up most of the image, and is a pale and almost-clear blue save for some small fluffy clouds in one corner just above the horizon.
"Shitaya Shrine, Tokyo, Japan"<br /><br />A photograph of a shrine at night time. The composition is nicely symmetrical, with steps leading up to the shrine and the shrine aligned to the middle of the frame. There are lanterns lit casting a warm glow on the woodwork, and trees lit in the background. The sky is dark and cloudy.
"Traditional Japanese Restaurant, Taito City, Tokyo, Japan"<br /><br />A view down a narrow tarmac road alongside some modern brick buildings on the right, looking towards more traditional, wooden buildings with warm lanterns on the left. The road leads to a T-junction with a larger road, and someone is crossing the street. On the other side of the larger road, tall apartment buildings with balconies and big glass windows face the camera. The sky is dark blue with a few wispy clouds.

A figure facing the camera with an indistinct grey blurred background. Their expression is neutral. Their long dark hair has a few stray strands blowing in a breeze. They wear a loose white buttoned shirt with an open V collar, and a loose black jacket.
A big grey rock protrudes from the ocean. It's very vertical and has lots of criss-crossing seams, and moss growing on the top. The rock stands stark against a muted grey sky, and the ocean is still and dark with only a few white flecks on small waves.
A range of shallow rugged hills cloaked in a haze of dust that become paler further towards the horizon as they are engulfed in haze. The image overall is very orange; the hills in the foreground are a deep orange-brown, and become paler towards the background, almost yellow.
A white lighthouse with a red top in center frame. The lower part of the building is obscured behind blurred foreground vegetation; stalks of long grass and brown-red blobs of flowers. The ocean is just visible behind the lighthouse, and the sky is pale blue and streaked with clouds.

A misty pine forest. The trees in the foreground are clear, and gradually ascend into a mountain mist as they climb further back.
A black and white photograph of a cr tunnel. The ceiling is black with a strip of lights, the walls are curved concrete panels, and the road is patterned with a checkerboard caused by the lights above. A motorbike and a car drive towards the camera from the far side of the road. The tunnel curves away to the right in the background.
A little boat sails along still waters. The boat and the person rowing it are in silhouette. There are tall poles and a structure in the background, and reeds growing in the foreground. There's a mist rising from the water.
A landscape photo of two wind turbines under a cloudy sky. There's a dry brown field in the foreground stretching across the frame. The left-most turbine is in a square of lush green grass, the other is further back in another brown field. There's a forest low in the distance. The turbines have orange stems that are deep orange at the bottom and a lighter orange at the top, with white blades.

A person with a brown towel wrapped around their head wearing a white crop vest and blue jeans lies front-down on a cherry red leather sofa, propped up onto one arm with their elbows, looking off-scene to the left. The floor is covered with photographs, and the wall is covered with black-framed photographs arranged in rows.
A person in a beige long-sleeved t-shirt and white shorts or skirt crouches down over a wooden floor where big sheets of white paper are arranged. They're painting with black paint and a brush, drawing long swirling lines. There's a window behind them framed in long, loose white curtains, and behind, some potted plants on a balcony and a white-walled highrise.
A person in a lilac cropped sports bra and matching lilac leggings stretches on a white floor against a white wall, facing away from the camera. Their arms are spread out to either side with their fingers together and palms upwards. They stand on their tiptoes. Light grey shadows stretch across the wall and floor forming parallel lines.
A person dressed in blue sits on some outdoor steps next to a railing. The steps and railings continue into the background. They're wearing a dark blue sweater and dark blue trousers with a grey t-shirt and white, slightly dirty sneakers with a green strip behind the ankle. Their socks are grey and white stripes. They have one leg bent at the knee and the other further forward with their toes raised, and their hands are on their legs. They're looking just off camera, smiling widely.

Not sure this'll work, but let's see :) # art remix 'event'?

Create a flower (flat, top-down, 2D style, like this> 🌸 ) using the palette below. Make it as simple or complicated as you like, let's say 500px square? Post your flower with the # hashtag, and then people can browse the flowers and use them to remix into their own art which they then share back :D

How does that sound? Thought it might be something small and bright and colourful we can participate in :)

A red lighthouse, lit, on a grassy hill against a dark cloudy sky
A girl in a brown shirt, sitting in grass, reaching one arm up to some grass overhead, a big smile on her face.
The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence, Italy, seen from an elevated view looking across many red tiled rooftops below, and mountains in the background under a cloudy sky.
Looking out across a cliffface, a waterfall pouring into the ocean below as the cliffs stretch off into the distance over a still grey sea.
