A lively handwritten print with a consistent rightward slant and smooth, rounded stroke endings. Strokes feel monoline and slightly brush-influenced, with gentle tapers and soft terminals rather than sharp cuts. Letterforms are open and simplified, with a bouncy baseline rhythm and uneven, human spacing that keeps the texture animated. Capitals are narrow and flowing, while lowercase remains compact with a relatively small x-height and generous ascender/descender presence.
Works best in short-to-medium text where a personable, handmade flavor is desired—such as packaging copy, posters, casual branding, menus, invitations, and greeting cards. It can also serve well for pull quotes and social graphics where a friendly handwritten tone is needed.
The overall tone is warm and informal, like quick marker lettering for notes, menus, or friendly signage. Its steady slant and rounded shapes give it an upbeat, conversational feel without becoming messy or overly quirky.
Designed to capture the feel of quick, confident hand lettering: clean enough to read easily, but irregular enough to stay human. The intent appears to balance informal charm with consistent shapes so it can be used both for display lines and brief paragraphs.
Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with rounded bowls and straightforward construction that matches the letterforms. The italic-like slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping text read as a cohesive handwritten voice in longer passages.
