A lively, brush-pen script with rounded terminals and a slightly slanted, forward-moving stance. Strokes show subtle thick–thin modulation and occasional tapering, giving a natural marker/brush feel rather than rigid calligraphy. Letterforms are compact with a relatively low x-height, generous ascenders/descenders, and frequent entry/exit strokes that encourage connecting. Counters are open and shapes are simplified, producing a smooth, quick handwritten rhythm across text.
Works best for short to medium display text where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, stickers, packaging callouts, and social media graphics. It can also suit headings or pull quotes when set with comfortable spacing to preserve the airy, brushy texture.
The overall tone is personable and upbeat, with a spontaneous, handwritten charm that feels approachable and informal. Its bouncy curves and looping joins lend it a crafty, diary-like friendliness suited to lighthearted messaging.
Designed to simulate confident, everyday handwriting with a brush-marker edge—balancing legibility with expressive movement. The construction emphasizes friendly connectivity and quick, organic strokes for a natural, human-made impression.
Capitals are tall and expressive, often starting with a prominent leading stroke and ending in soft hooks, while lowercase forms maintain consistent cursive momentum. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic with rounded turns and easy readability, keeping the texture cohesive across mixed content.
