A lively brush-pen script with a right-leaning posture, tall proportions, and a clear stroke-contrast that suggests pressure changes. Curves are rounded and elastic, with frequent loops in ascenders and entry/exit strokes that create a flowing rhythm. Letterforms show a mix of connected behavior and deliberate breaks, giving the texture an informal, handwritten cadence. Terminals are tapered and slightly flicked, and spacing varies gently from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the natural, drawn feel.
Well-suited for short-to-medium display settings where personality is the priority—logos, boutique branding, product packaging, event invitations, and social graphics. It also works nicely for pull quotes, headers, and name treatments where its flowing rhythm and distinct capitals can shine.
The overall tone is warm and personable, with an upbeat, chatty energy typical of modern handwritten lettering. Its looping strokes and buoyant movement read as friendly and approachable, leaning more toward casual charm than formality.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of brush handwriting while maintaining consistent letter shapes for repeatable typesetting. The intention appears to balance expressive loops and contrast with enough regularity to remain readable in common display sizes.
Capitals are expressive and prominent, adding a decorative, signature-like presence at the start of words. Numerals follow the same pen-driven logic with simple, rounded shapes and occasional flourish, keeping the set visually consistent in running text.
