A slanted, handwritten script with brush-pen construction and visibly textured stroke edges. Letterforms show lively, uneven pressure with tapered terminals, occasional ink-dry spots, and slight wobble that keeps the rhythm organic rather than geometric. Curves are open and airy, counters are irregular, and spacing varies subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a natural, written feel. Capitals are prominent and gestural, while lowercase forms stay compact with a relatively low x-height and long, fluid extenders.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where the textured brush quality can be appreciated, such as posters, packaging labels, album or book covers, and brand marks that want a handmade tone. It also works well for pull quotes or headings paired with a cleaner text face, especially when a warm, artisanal feel is desired.
The font reads as friendly and human, with a slightly rugged, weathered character that suggests quick notes, handmade signage, or ink on rough paper. Its energetic slant and brush texture give it an expressive, informal voice that can feel both nostalgic and outdoorsy.
Likely designed to emulate natural brush handwriting with a dry, worn print texture—prioritizing personality and motion over strict consistency. The goal appears to be an expressive, informal script that feels authentic and slightly aged when set in headlines or feature text.
Texture is consistent across letters and numerals, creating a cohesive dry-brush print effect in continuous text. The numerals share the same casual stroke behavior and irregular finishing, and the overall cadence feels more like fast marker or brush lettering than a formal calligraphic script.
