A tall, slanted handwritten script with brush-pen characteristics and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes show subtle pressure changes, producing tapered entries and exits and slightly thicker downstrokes. Letterforms are narrow and upright in construction despite the overall italic lean, with long ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase counters. Connections appear intermittent rather than fully continuous, with many letters joining via quick linking strokes while others lift naturally, reinforcing an authentic hand-drawn cadence.
Best suited to short-to-medium lines where an expressive handwritten voice is desired, such as branding accents, packaging callouts, poster headlines, social graphics, and pull quotes. It can also work for invitations or personal stationery when used at comfortable sizes with generous spacing.
The font reads as informal and personable, like quick marker lettering used for notes or casual headlines. Its energetic slant and brisk stroke endings convey motion and spontaneity, while the narrow, tall proportions keep the tone modern and lightweight rather than playful or bubbly.
Designed to capture the look of fast, confident brush handwriting with a narrow, tall silhouette and an energetic slant. The goal appears to be a natural, human feel with enough consistency for repeated use while preserving small irregularities that signal authenticity.
Uppercase forms feel simplified and gestural, with occasional angular turns and slight baseline variation that enhances the handwritten realism. Numerals follow the same quick, brushed construction, with open shapes and a consistent forward momentum.
