An expressive brush-pen style with a pronounced rightward slant and compact proportions. Strokes show visible pressure modulation with tapered entries and exits, producing medium contrast and slightly rough, ink-like edges. Letterforms are largely unconnected, with quick, gestural construction and occasional stroke flicks and hooks that add momentum. Counters are relatively tight and the overall rhythm is lively, with small variations in stroke width and shape that reinforce a hand-drawn feel.
Works well for short-to-medium display text where a lively handwritten voice is needed, such as posters, packaging callouts, social media graphics, and casual branding headlines. It can also suit quotes and signage when set with generous tracking and line spacing to preserve clarity at smaller sizes.
The font conveys an informal, upbeat tone—confident and conversational rather than refined. Its brisk, brushy movement reads as energetic and approachable, with a handmade character suited to friendly messaging and light emphasis.
Designed to mimic quick brush lettering: narrow, slanted forms with pressure-driven strokes and natural irregularities to feel personal and spontaneous. The goal appears to be a readable yet expressive print-hand style that adds energy without relying on connected script joins.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent brush logic, with compact lowercase and tall, narrow capitals that keep lines feeling tight and vertical despite the slant. Numerals match the same brisk, handwritten cadence, and the textured stroke edges help it stand out in short phrases or display settings.
