Sloop is an original green abstract trees painting on canvas by visual artist Shawn McNulty.

Fun Fact: The title comes from the song Sloop John B by the Beach Boys. The song was originally recorded in 1916 as The John B. Sails, and is considered a Bahamian folk song. The Kingston Trio’s 1958 version of the song was recorded under the title The Wreck of the John B, and was the direct influence on the Beach Boys’ version.
