The problem is that, unlike programmers, artists generally want to get paid (insert here the millions of complaints about having to do a logo for free, etc.). So that's a no-go for most free software which don't have the means to pay anything or don't want to introduce a schism between programmers who gave hundreds of hours for free and a graphic artists who'd get paid for a dozen hours of work.

We worked on the game for the same reasons - if it was for fun only, we both knew it was for free and if the game turned profitable, it was to be shared. A lot of artists do provide free art (e.g. kenney or the huge community at opengameart or myself with the tutorials and the freeart (http://2dgameartforfree.blogspot.de/ http://2dgameartforfree.blogspot.de/).
