Looking for a kind of WordPress blog theme, but I don't know how to describe it

I want to have a simple blog theme for my website, one that I can put a background that is visible on the sides or the sides and or top.
Here's an example:
http://thevegantruth.blogspot.com/
I don't care if the white part where the text goes is see-through like this website. It would be nice if I could change the background from white to something else where the main content goes.
Here's another example:
https://www.knicksonline.com/recaps/orlando-magic-at-new-york-knicks-msg-broadcast-recap.html
I'm new to this stuff so I just want to keep it simple while it's reliable as well.

Wordpress themes can be full of vulnerabilities. Vectors of hacking attempts.
It's good to start on a secure and minimal basis like the generatepress theme (free):
https://wordpress.org/themes/generatepress/
And then you can apply the Tasty theme (structure looks similar to what you want) for example:
https://generatepress.com/site-library/
Then change it around as per your liking.

Thanks for the reply! Just saw this now.
I bought this theme a few weeks ago:
https://themeforest.net/item/iceberg-simple-minimal-personal-contentfocused-wordpress-blog-theme-rtl-support/13624572
Here's my website:
https://runningjumper.com/
WordPress can be a lot to take in, but it came out nicely. I also have Beaver Builder which I want to learn to be good at. I used it for my About Me, but it's simple and didn't need to use it.

I think it looks pretty solid, man.
I know you already bought from Envato, but I don't recommend sticking with them forever. They have some pretty shady business practices. I don't know if they still do their bullshit token thing where you buy their tokens to then spend on their products, but that's how it use to be. It was shady as fuck. You had to buy like $40 in tokens, then you'd buy something for $25 equivalent and the extra $15 was just stuck there. Then they'd stop supporting that version of the product in a year, meaning you have to buy the new version.
There are plenty of reputable themes out there that provide lifetime support for their themes. They cost more money, usually like $200, but it's worth it once you get your site really cooking.
-------------------- Enjoy the process of your search without succumbing to the pressure of the result. A Dorito is pizza, change my mind. Bank and Union with The Shroomery at the Zuul on The internet - now with %'s and things I’m sorry it had to be me.

Late reply, but I've built a few sites with the Photobook theme and it worked well for me. Gives lots of options on how you want the background to behave.
https://wordpress.org/themes/photobook/
Examples of it in the wild:

Shroomintune, it looks great. What do you think about customization of any website build with WordPress, but without plugins? I was interested in it, and could find this site with custom wordpress dashboard customization tips and useful advises. They have described literally everything, step by step, and I like it.
