A lively, brush-pen script with a forward slant and a naturally uneven baseline. Strokes show subtle modulation and tapered terminals, with occasional thicker downstrokes that suggest pressure changes from a marker or brush. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, mixing open counters with quick, angular joins and generous loops in characters like g, y, and z. Capitals are tall and prominent, with simplified, gestural shapes that keep the overall rhythm quick and informal.
Best suited to display sizes where its brush texture and lively joins can be appreciated—such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and short quotes. It also works well for social graphics and informal branding where a personal, handwritten voice is desired; for longer passages, generous leading helps maintain clarity.
The font reads as personal and upbeat, like fast handwritten notes or casual signage made with a felt-tip pen. Its irregularities and energetic motion give it an approachable, conversational tone rather than a polished calligraphic one.
Designed to capture the immediacy of quick cursive writing with a brush or marker, prioritizing character and motion over geometric consistency. The goal appears to be an expressive, everyday script that remains readable while preserving a spontaneous, handmade look.
Spacing and letter widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the hand-drawn feel. Numerals follow the same brisk, marker-like construction, staying legible while retaining the same casual stroke endings and slight wobble.
