Draw a poly the size of the screen and just change the color black white yellow,
doing it this way you can take a texture and wrap it to the poly.
you will need to look into timers or it will run at crazy speeds.

You could set the clear color and call glClear(GL_COLOR_BIT);
you probarbly already call glClear, so this should work well.
Or if you want a more advanced background (lika a gradient) you could draw a full screen quad.
