A slanted, handwritten print with brush-like strokes and a gently modulated line that thickens through curves and downstrokes. Letterforms are compact with a relatively low x-height and slightly irregular widths, giving the text a natural, made-by-hand rhythm. Terminals are mostly soft and tapered, with occasional pointed joins and sweeping entry/exit strokes that add momentum without connecting letters.
This font works best for short-to-medium display text where its expressive slant and brushy texture can be appreciated—such as posters, packaging, event materials, greeting cards, and pull quotes. It can also support subheads or emphasis in editorial layouts when paired with a more restrained text face.
The overall tone feels friendly and energetic, with an informal confidence that reads as personal rather than polished. Its italic motion and bouncy proportions give it a retro, poster-like charm suited to upbeat messaging.
The design appears intended to capture the look of quick, confident hand lettering—readable and consistent, yet varied enough to feel human. Its slanted stance and tapered strokes aim to add motion and personality to display typography.
Uppercase shapes are broad and gestural, while lowercase forms keep a brisk pace with simplified counters and swift turns. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, using angled stress and curved sweeps that match the letter rhythm.
