A narrow, right-slanted handwritten script with a dry-brush texture and lightly irregular stroke edges. Letterforms are built from swift, tapered strokes that often end in sharp points, with occasional heavier pressure at curves and joins creating modest contrast. The rhythm is quick and slightly bouncy, with compact counters and tight spacing; capitals are tall and gestural, while lowercase forms stay small with relatively short ascenders/descenders for a condensed, efficient line. Connections appear frequently in running text, but not every character links, giving it a natural pen-lift cadence.
Best suited to short, prominent text where its brush texture and motion can show through—such as posters, social media graphics, packaging callouts, labels, and branding accents. It can also work for quotes or pull-phrases when given generous size and spacing to maintain clarity.
The font feels spontaneous and personal, like fast marker or brush-pen lettering. Its narrow stance and energetic slant add urgency and motion, while the textured strokes keep it approachable rather than polished. Overall it reads as contemporary, informal, and expressive.
Designed to emulate quick, natural brush-pen handwriting in a compact, space-saving width, balancing expressive texture with enough consistency to function as a display script. The aim appears to be an energetic, modern handwritten look for attention-grabbing titles and informal messaging.
Numerals and capitals share the same brisk, handwritten construction, making the set cohesive for mixed-case headlines. The dry-brush grain becomes a key visual feature at larger sizes, while the narrow proportions can make dense passages feel busy if set too small.
