Psalm 24:1-2 says, "The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters."
In other words, God owns the whole world because he is the one who created it. Similarly, when you create a drawing, essay or a new locker design, unless you give it away or sell it, you are the owner of it.
Now, think about all the pictures you can find when you do a Google image search. Many of those images are owned by someone else and it is not okay for you to use them without permission. When you do use them, you are in fact stealing - even if it's really easy to do.
