A lively handwritten script with brush-like, textured strokes and noticeable stroke modulation. Letters lean forward and follow a bouncy baseline rhythm, with narrow proportions and tight internal spacing that keep words compact. Terminals are often tapered or slightly blunted, and many forms show subtle wobble and ink drag that enhances the hand-rendered feel. Uppercase characters are tall and expressive with simplified, calligraphic construction, while lowercase forms use looping ascenders/descenders and occasional partial connections that suggest quick, continuous writing.
Works well for short to medium display text where a personal, handcrafted voice is desired—such as greeting cards, invitations, product packaging, café menus, quotes for social media, and poster headlines. It is especially effective when paired with a clean sans or simple serif for supporting copy.
The font reads as friendly and informal, with a spontaneous, personal tone. Its uneven textures and energetic slant give it a crafty, journal-like character that feels approachable rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to emulate quick, expressive cursive writing with visible brush texture and natural variation, prioritizing personality and warmth over strict regularity. The overall construction aims for an authentic handmade look suitable for casual branding and decorative display settings.
Contrast and texture vary slightly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, drawn-with-a-marker impression. Numerals and capitals carry the same gestural logic as the lowercase, helping mixed text maintain a consistent handmade voice.
