A lively handwritten print with a consistent rightward slant and brushy stroke terminals. Letterforms are narrow and slightly irregular, with rounded curves, soft corners, and gently fluctuating stroke widths that suggest a marker or brush pen. Proportions are compact, with relatively tall ascenders/descenders and a smaller lowercase body, creating a quick, note-like rhythm. Numerals and capitals keep the same informal construction, with loose geometry and subtly varied widths that enhance the hand-drawn character.
Well-suited to informal display and short-to-medium text where a personal, handwritten touch is desired—such as posters, social media graphics, invitations, packaging accents, labels, and pull quotes. It performs best at moderate to larger sizes where the brush texture and rhythmic irregularity can read clearly.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, like quick handwritten notes or casual signage. Its energetic slant and slightly imperfect outlines read as human and spontaneous, giving it a friendly, everyday personality rather than a polished calligraphic feel.
Designed to mimic quick, legible handwriting with an italicized, brush-pen feel—prioritizing personality and immediacy over typographic neutrality. The goal appears to be an easygoing, human voice that stays readable while retaining hand-made variation.
Spacing feels naturally uneven in a deliberate way, contributing to an organic texture in longer lines. Strokes often finish with tapered or slightly blunted ends, reinforcing the brushed/marker impression and keeping the texture lively at display sizes.
