You can find some in the Graphic Library
The whole game is GPL - the point of doing that is so that you don't have to ask. We're "free as in beer" - e.g, it costs $0 to play wesnoth.
But we're also "free as in speech" - meaning, so long as you preserve this freedom for other people, and make sure they know they're free to do the same*, you can do whatever the hell you want with wesnoth. Yes, this includes selling it.
So, yes, you are free to use any images from wesnoth, just don't claim you don't claim that you "own" them, and if you use them for something other than wesnoth, make sure other people know they're from wesnoth.
* which means, including the license which says "it's free for any use", and if you were, say, selling it, including the source code.
