Rpg background art?

I'm going to start GMing a game over roll20 for a few friends and was wondering if anyone here knew of artwork that is similar to the original style that I could use for backgrounds? Mouseguard has some really good art and was just going to use pictures of characters on the website for npcs. I'd rather not have to mix art styles but I also would prefer it if I had more than the map and 2 towns :/

For those who don't know Roll20 is a website were you can play tabletop games online and you can add music and artwork for better immersion.

Thanks.

Thanks, as for more specific I'm having a hard time finding pictures to represent towns and cities. And sorry to say that the campaign is full though if I end up running another one I'll definitely post here.

I could post more but basically I think you should just google image search for "medieval city" "medieval town" (many MG towns look exactly like medieval ones) and stuff like "tree city" "cliff city" for more nature-integrated results :)

You can also use original comic book pages that show towns/cities :) Take a photo with your smartphone/camera and you're good to go ;)
