A lively brush-pen style with brisk, slightly right-leaning strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are narrow and compact with a handwritten irregularity in width and spacing that creates an animated rhythm. Strokes show subtle pressure changes and occasional tapering, keeping the texture organic rather than mechanical, while overall shapes remain legible and consistently informal across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Works well for short headlines, packaging labels, café/retail signage, and social graphics where a handmade voice is desired. Best at display sizes where the brush texture and narrow rhythm can read clearly, rather than in long body copy.
The tone is upbeat and conversational, suggesting personal notes, casual signage, and modern craft branding. Its quick, brushed motion reads as spontaneous and approachable, with just enough swagger to feel expressive without becoming messy.
Designed to capture the look of quick hand-lettering with a brush marker—expressive, compact, and easy to deploy as an informal display face. The goal appears to be a contemporary handwritten feel that stays readable while retaining natural variation.
Capitals feel assertive and poster-ready, while the lowercase maintains a quicker, more note-like flow; together they create a clear hierarchy in mixed-case text. Numerals follow the same brushed construction, keeping the set cohesive for short callouts and pricing.
