A lively brush-pen style with slanted, fast-moving strokes and a slightly bouncy baseline. Letterforms show noticeable stroke modulation from pressure and speed, with tapered entries/exits and occasional dry-brush texture at terminals. Counters are generally open and rounded, and proportions vary naturally from glyph to glyph, giving the set a distinctly hand-rendered rhythm. The caps are punchy and gestural, while the lowercase keeps a compact feel with short ascenders/descenders and quick, simplified shapes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, product packaging, social graphics, event promos, and casual signage. It also works well for pull quotes, menus, and title treatments where a handmade brush voice is desired.
The overall tone is informal and energetic, like confident marker lettering used for quick headlines or notes. Its lively slant and textured strokes create a friendly, spontaneous feel that reads as personal and upbeat rather than polished or corporate.
Designed to capture the immediacy of hand-painted or marker lettering in a consistent, usable font form. The intention appears to prioritize personality, momentum, and expressive stroke behavior over strict geometric regularity.
Spacing appears intentionally uneven in a hand-lettered way, which helps authenticity but can make long passages feel busy at smaller sizes. Numerals match the same brisk, brushy construction, supporting cohesive mixed alphanumeric settings.
