A slanted cursive script with a brush-pen feel, built from smooth, continuous strokes that taper at entry and exit points. Letterforms are compact and tall in proportion, with small lowercase bodies, long ascenders/descenders, and occasional looped forms that add rhythm. Stroke contrast comes through pressure-like thickening on curves and downstrokes, while terminals stay sharp and flicked, giving the line a quick, handwritten cadence. Spacing is relatively tight and the overall texture is lively rather than strictly uniform.
Well-suited to short, attention-grabbing text such as logos, packaging callouts, social posts, invitations, and display headlines where a personal signature-like voice is desired. It’s most effective at medium to large sizes, where the tapering and lively stroke motion remain clear.
The font reads as informal and personable, with an energetic, handwritten flow that feels spontaneous and human. Its brisk slant and flicked terminals add a slightly dramatic, romantic tone, while the rounded loops keep it approachable.
Designed to emulate quick brush handwriting with a fluent, connected rhythm—prioritizing personality, motion, and a natural written texture over rigid regularity.
Uppercase forms are simplified and gestural, pairing well with the lowercase without becoming overly ornate. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with angled strokes and tapered finishes that keep them consistent with the script’s pace.
