You apply colors to textview, not textbuffer

tview = gtk.TextView()
# background
tview.modify_base(gtk.STATE_NORMAL, gtk.gdk.color_parse('#000000'))
# foreground
tview.modify_text(gtk.STATE_NORMAL, gtk.gdk.color_parse('#FFFFFF'))
# bonus font
tview.modify_font(pango.FontDescription('Monospace 11'))
