I use a lot of truchet tiles in my art (https://andrewwulf.com), but I color them afterwards, which seems fairly uncommon (article from last year, https://thecodist.com/my-art-and-color-after-tiling/) outside of shaders. I focus on 2d art for print. I also use various combinations of 1x1, 1x2, 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4 tiles, sometimes all in one work.
