Sure. Look at conceptual art. The walldrawings of Sol Lewitt for instance.
They're basically just a script, a 'scene-file' describing exactly how the final
drawing should look, what materials should be used etc. Which doesn't mean
you're free to copy it everywhere. I believe you have to buy a license and then
maybe even the master will supervise the drawing (if he's still alive).
I'm not very good at copyrights and such but I believe you're talking about
intellectual ownership here (or whatever you would call it).
