A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel, combining smooth, tapered curves with occasional dry-brush texture and ink buildup on turns. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation and a forward slant, with narrow letterforms and compact counters that keep the rhythm tight. Connections are selective rather than fully continuous, giving the writing a spontaneous, note-like cadence; ascenders are tall and prominent while the lowercase body stays relatively small. Capitals are taller, more gesture-driven, and sometimes simplified to single sweeping strokes, reinforcing an informal, drawn-by-hand character.
Well-suited to short to medium display settings where personality matters: logos and brand marks, product packaging, café or boutique signage, event invitations, and social content. It also works for pull quotes and headings when you want a handmade accent, but the tight proportions and textured strokes suggest avoiding very small sizes for longer passages.
The font reads as personable and energetic, like quick signage or a confident marker note. Its uneven texture and brisk stroke endings add warmth and authenticity, while the narrow, fast rhythm keeps it feeling modern and upbeat. Overall it conveys an approachable, crafty tone suited to informal communication.
Designed to capture the speed and charm of brush handwriting in a polished, repeatable form. The goal appears to be an expressive script that feels authentic and contemporary, emphasizing gesture, contrast, and a compact rhythm for impactful display typography.
The alphabet shows intentional irregularities in stroke weight and edge texture that mimic real brush pressure and lift-offs. Some forms lean toward monoline gestures in lighter strokes while others display heavier downstrokes, creating a dynamic, handwritten color across words. Numerals echo the same brisk, narrow construction with cursive-like movement.
