A compact, hand-drawn brush style with energetic, irregular outlines and visibly textured stroke edges. Forms are mostly upright with a bouncy baseline feel created by uneven stroke pressure and slightly inconsistent character widths. Counters are generally open and rounded, while terminals often taper or blunt as if made with a dry brush. The overall rhythm is lively and imperfect, with deliberate wobble and rough interior texture that reads like ink drag or marker grain.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing copy such as posters, cover art, packaging callouts, social graphics, and merch or sticker-style typography. It works especially well when you want a handcrafted look at display sizes, where the stroke texture and rough edges can read clearly.
The font conveys an informal, human tone—expressive and slightly rebellious, like a quick handwritten note or a DIY poster. Its roughened strokes add a gritty, analog character that feels playful rather than aggressive, suggesting spontaneity and personality over polish.
Designed to mimic quick brush lettering with a distressed, ink-on-paper texture, prioritizing expressive gesture and handmade authenticity. The intent appears to be a high-impact display face that adds personality and a tactile, printed feel without needing additional effects.
Uppercase shapes are simple and legible with softened geometry, while lowercase letters lean toward handwritten constructions with single-story forms and relaxed joins. Numerals match the same brushy texture and casual irregularity, keeping a consistent hand-rendered voice across the set.
