A lively cursive script with a brush-pen feel, built from tapered strokes and pronounced thick–thin contrast. Letterforms are tall and compact, with a rightward slant and a rhythm of narrow counters and elongated ascenders/descenders. Terminals are softly rounded with occasional flicks and hooks, and connections are selective—some letters join while others break to keep shapes clear. Capitals are more expressive and looped, while lowercase stays streamlined and upright in structure despite the slant.
This font suits short, prominent text such as logos, product names, packaging callouts, social posts, invitations, and greeting cards. It performs best at medium-to-large sizes where the delicate joins and high contrast remain crisp and the looping capitals can provide visual flair.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick hand-lettering for notes, labels, and small-brand messaging. Its energetic stroke motion and looped capitals add a light, upbeat charm without feeling overly formal.
Designed to emulate quick brush handwriting with an elegant slant and compact, vertical emphasis, aiming for a friendly display script that feels handcrafted and expressive while remaining readable in short phrases.
The alphabet shows noticeable handwritten variation in stroke entry/exit and joining behavior, which reinforces an authentic drawn quality. Numerals are simple and consistent with the script’s narrow proportions, and the sample text reads smoothly at display sizes where the contrast and slender joins have room to breathe.
