A lively hand-drawn display face with brush-like strokes that taper into pointed terminals and occasional wedge cuts. Letterforms mix rounded bowls with sharp, angular joins, creating a slightly chiseled silhouette and an irregular, human rhythm. Strokes show noticeable modulation and varied endings, while counters stay fairly open for a painted look. Proportions feel compact with a low x-height and uneven widths, giving words a bouncy, animated texture rather than a strict typographic grid.
Best suited to short, attention-getting text such as posters, titles, book covers, and packaging where the handmade character can be a feature. It can also work for playful brand marks or event headlines, especially when you want a crafted, folkloric tone over strict typographic regularity.
The overall tone is playful and slightly mischievous, with a folk-art, storybook energy. Its pointed terminals and lively curves add a dramatic, fantasy-leaning flair, making text feel expressive and characterful rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to simulate confident, fast brush lettering with sharpened, cut terminals—prioritizing personality, rhythm, and a handmade texture for display use. It aims to feel informal and illustrative while remaining legible at larger sizes.
Capitals have a more emblematic, sign-like presence, while lowercase keeps the same brush-cut personality, producing a consistent handmade voice across mixed-case settings. Numerals echo the same tapered, cut-in details, helping headings and short lines feel cohesive.
