Artist Jessie Wolf has ants in her pants and glitter in her soul.

“You never know what’s going to happen next,” she said of her career and life trajectory.

At the moment, her focus is on opening the all-new Bunkhouse, a split-level handmade/vintage boutique and working art studio, workshop and gallery located in Schooner’s Wharf in Beach Haven. In one window hangs an illuminated emblem: a hand clutching a paint-dipped brush radiating beams of light, like the Statue of Liberty with her torch. It’s a symbol of Wolf’s personal and professional mission.

“‘She wanted to save the world with a paintbrush – but she got distracted,’” she play-acted with a laugh.
