A slanted, brush-pen cursive with smooth, continuous strokes and gently tapered terminals. Letterforms are tall and compact, with narrow set widths and a noticeably small x-height that emphasizes long ascenders and descenders. Curves are rounded and slightly elastic, with occasional looped joins and a lightly textured, hand-drawn edge that keeps the rhythm informal rather than strictly calligraphic. Capitals are simplified and upright in structure but follow the same forward lean, while numerals share the same handwritten motion and soft, rounded shaping.
Works well for short to medium-length display settings where a casual handwritten voice is desired—social graphics, packaging callouts, greeting cards, invitations, and quote-style headlines. It can also suit logo wordmarks when a friendly, personal tone is needed, especially at sizes where the brush-like detailing remains clear.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, like quick but confident handwriting. Its energetic slant and brushy stroke endings give it a lively, conversational feel suited to informal messaging and personable branding.
Designed to capture the immediacy of quick cursive writing with a brush-pen flavor—compact, slanted, and energetic—while keeping forms consistent enough to function reliably in common display text.
Spacing appears naturally uneven in a hand-written way, with some letters feeling tighter and others more open, contributing to an organic flow in text. The stroke contrast is subtle and driven more by implied pen pressure than rigid thick–thin logic, helping it remain readable while still feeling handcrafted.
