A slanted, handwritten script with a brush-pen construction and lively, fast rhythm. Strokes show noticeable texture and intermittently rough interiors, creating a dry-brush feel rather than smooth, polished outlines. Letterforms are mostly unconnected with generous sidebearings, and shapes vary subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, drawn quality. Capitals are larger and more gestural, while the lowercase stays compact with small counters and a modest x-height relative to ascenders.
Works best in short to medium-length settings where its brush texture and slanted movement can be appreciated—headlines, poster titles, product labels, and brand accents. It also suits social graphics and pull quotes where a handcrafted, energetic voice is desired. For longer paragraphs, larger sizes and comfortable line spacing will help preserve clarity.
The overall tone is informal and expressive, like quick marker or brush notes made with confidence. The textured edges and ink-break artifacts add a worn, analog character that reads as handmade and slightly gritty rather than pristine. It feels friendly and energetic, with a hint of retro signage or journal lettering.
Designed to mimic quick brush lettering with visible ink texture and natural stroke variation, aiming for an authentic handmade look. The intent appears to balance legibility with a deliberately imperfect, analog finish suitable for expressive display typography.
Texture is consistently present across letters and numerals, so the distressed character becomes part of the font’s color at text sizes. The slant and narrow proportions create forward motion, while simplified terminals keep the forms readable despite the roughness.
