A slanted brush-script with heavy, rounded strokes and softly tapered terminals that mimic a marker or signpainter’s brush. Letterforms show smooth, continuous curves and frequent entry/exit strokes, with selective joining and an overall right-leaning rhythm. Uppercase characters are compact and flourishy, while the lowercase keeps tight counters and a relatively low x-height, producing a punchy, energetic texture. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with curved shoulders and slightly irregular widths for a natural, drawn feel.
Well-suited for short-to-medium display copy where a handcrafted voice is desirable, such as logos, product packaging, café or event posters, social graphics, and pull quotes. The strong stroke weight and lively slant help it stand out in headings, while the script character adds personality to names and taglines.
The font reads upbeat and personable, with a vintage hand-lettered charm that feels both approachable and expressive. Its bold, brushy presence suggests motion and enthusiasm, making text feel conversational rather than formal.
Designed to emulate confident brush lettering with a controlled, repeatable structure—capturing the spontaneity of handwriting while maintaining consistent rhythm and recognizable shapes for display typography.
Ascenders and descenders are prominent and smoothly looped (notably in forms like g, j, y), adding a decorative swing to lines of text. The stroke endings are consistently rounded, which reduces sharpness and reinforces a friendly, soft-edged tone even at display sizes.
