A lively hand-drawn print with thick, brush-like strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms lean forward with a bouncy rhythm, mixing compact counters with occasional widened strokes for a natural, uneven texture. Edges appear slightly irregular as if made with a felt tip or brush marker, while overall shapes stay clear and legible. Caps are sturdy and simplified, and the lowercase keeps a compact body with tall, expressive ascenders and descenders.
Best suited to short to medium text where personality matters: posters, product packaging, labels, social graphics, and casual headlines. It can also work for pull quotes or display-sized captions where the thick strokes and lively slant remain crisp and readable.
The font feels upbeat and approachable, with a spontaneous marker-note personality. Its forward slant and uneven stroke edges create motion and warmth, suggesting an informal, human voice rather than a polished corporate tone.
The design appears intended to emulate bold, quickly lettered marker writing while maintaining consistent, readable silhouettes. Its goal seems to be delivering friendly emphasis and handmade charm in display settings without resorting to connected script.
Spacing reads deliberately loose and airy for a handwritten face, helping the heavy strokes avoid clogging in words. Numerals share the same hand-rendered character, with rounded shapes and slightly varied widths that reinforce the casual texture.
