A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel, built from smooth, rounded strokes and gently tapered terminals. The letterforms lean forward and keep a quick, springy rhythm, with looped ascenders/descenders and occasional entry/exit strokes that suggest natural pen movement. Uppercase characters are simple and slightly oversized, while the lowercase maintains a compact body with tall extenders, giving lines a varied vertical texture. Numerals match the informal flow, with soft curves and open shapes that read clearly at display sizes.
Well-suited for friendly branding, packaging callouts, social media graphics, greeting cards, and short quote treatments where a human, informal voice is desired. It performs best in headlines and mid-to-large sizes where the loops, flicks, and handwritten texture can be appreciated.
The overall tone is warm and personable, like casual note-taking or a quick signature. Its bouncy curves and relaxed structure make it feel upbeat and informal rather than polished or ceremonial.
Designed to capture the immediacy of a quick brush-pen script: energetic, legible, and characterful, with enough consistency for repeated text while preserving a natural handwritten spontaneity.
Stroke endings often finish with short flicks or hooks, and some characters show subtle shape variation typical of handwriting, which adds charm but can create uneven color in dense text. Spacing appears naturally irregular in a way that supports an authentic handwritten look.
