A lively, brush-pen styled italic with thick, rounded strokes and subtly uneven edges that preserve a handmade texture. Forms lean consistently to the right with a bouncy baseline feel and variable character widths, giving words a rhythmic, conversational flow. Counters are generally open and generous, and terminals often finish with soft, tapered flicks rather than sharp cuts, helping the letters hold together as a coherent, drawn set without becoming connected script.
Works best for short-to-medium display text where personality is the priority: posters, packaging callouts, café/food branding, social graphics, and pull quotes. It can also suit playful titles or subheads, especially when set with comfortable spacing to let the brush shapes breathe.
The overall tone is warm and upbeat, with an informal energy that feels personable and approachable. Its animated slant and brush texture evoke quick, confident marker lettering—more expressive than neutral, and more friendly than formal.
Designed to emulate bold, quickly written brush lettering in a print-style alphabet—prioritizing charm, motion, and an authentic hand-rendered texture over strict geometric regularity.
Uppercase shapes are sturdy and simplified with rounded shoulders, while lowercase carries more movement and occasional loop-like gestures (notably in letters such as g and y). Numerals match the same brush rhythm and weight, reading clearly while retaining the same hand-drawn irregularities.
