A lively handwritten script with brush-pen flavor and a forward slant. Strokes show rounded terminals and occasional thickened downstrokes, with smooth curves and soft joins that mimic quick, confident lettering. Letterforms are compact and slightly bouncy, with tight counters and a modest x-height that leaves tall ascenders and descenders to carry the rhythm. Spacing is naturally irregular, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, hand-drawn texture.
Works best for short, expressive text such as social media graphics, lifestyle branding, product packaging, posters, and quote-style headings. It can also suit invitations or greeting-card style layouts where a personal, handwritten tone is desired, especially at display sizes.
The font feels approachable and upbeat, like informal note-taking or a friendly headline written with a felt tip or brush marker. Its looping shapes and brisk rhythm add warmth and personality, leaning more expressive than formal.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of cursive handwriting in a clean, reproducible form—prioritizing natural rhythm, friendly loops, and brush-like stroke behavior for attention-grabbing display typography.
Capitals are simplified and gesture-driven, pairing well with the more fluid lowercase. Numerals share the same handwritten cadence, with rounded forms and a slightly whimsical feel that stays consistent with the letter shapes.
