A slanted brush-script style with tall, compact proportions and lively, pressure-driven strokes. Letterforms show pronounced thick-to-thin modulation, tapered terminals, and occasional sharp, pen-like corners where strokes change direction. Edges are intentionally rough and speckled, creating a dry-brush texture that varies across characters and adds visual noise. Spacing and widths feel irregular in a natural, handwritten way, with a generally tight rhythm and an overall upright-to-right-leaning flow in both capitals and lowercase.
Best suited for short, prominent copy such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and brand accents where a handmade, textured voice is desirable. It can work for pull quotes or subheads when set with generous size and spacing, and pairs well with clean sans or restrained serifs for body text.
The font reads as bold, handmade, and a bit gritty—more like ink dragged across paper than clean digital outlines. Its textured finish and brisk slant give it an energetic, human tone suited to informal, personality-forward messaging.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of brush lettering with a deliberately weathered imprint, prioritizing personality and motion over geometric regularity. The combination of strong stroke contrast, rightward energy, and roughened texture suggests an expressive display face meant to feel authentic and tactile.
Capitals have a simplified, monoline-to-brush hybrid feel with occasional spur-like strokes, while the lowercase leans more cursive and connected in spirit even when not fully joining. Numerals follow the same brushed construction and texture, maintaining consistency for display use. The distressed texture is prominent enough that fine details may soften at small sizes or on low-resolution output.
