A slanted handwritten script with tall, compact letterforms and a brush-pen feel. Strokes are predominantly monoline with subtle pressure changes and tapered terminals, producing a quick, sketched rhythm. Many characters show simplified, angular construction with occasional loops, and the overall spacing stays tight, giving words a condensed, fast-moving texture. Capitals are narrow and upright in structure but consistently slanted, pairing sharp joins with occasional extended entry/exit strokes.
Well suited to short headlines, branding lines, logos, and promotional graphics where a personal, hand-signed feel is desired. It works especially well at medium-to-large sizes on posters, packaging, and social media imagery, where the condensed rhythm and lively stroke endings remain legible and expressive.
The font reads as informal and human, with the urgency of a quick signature or note written in a marker. Its slightly edgy, angular motion keeps it lively rather than delicate, conveying an energetic, contemporary tone suited to expressive display use.
Designed to capture the immediacy of a real brush or marker signature while maintaining a consistent, repeatable alphabet. The goal appears to be an energetic, modern handwritten look that adds personality and emphasis without relying on heavy stroke contrast.
The sample text shows good momentum across words, with a mix of connected and lightly separated joins that preserves a handwritten cadence. Descenders and ascenders are prominent, and several capitals feature distinctive, elongated strokes that can add emphasis at the start of words.
