A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel, featuring tapered stroke endings, pronounced thick–thin modulation, and a consistent rightward slant. Letterforms are compact and upright in their spacing but show natural, slightly irregular widths and rhythmic bounce, with rounded bowls and frequent looped joins on ascenders and descenders. Capitals are simplified and tall with soft terminals, while lowercase forms mix open counters (a, e) with decorative loops (g, y, j), creating an energetic texture in words. Numerals follow the same drawn rhythm, with simple, slightly curving forms that match the script’s stroke behavior.
Well suited for short, prominent text such as headlines, logos, product labels, social posts, invitations, and greeting cards where a friendly handwritten voice is desired. It performs best at medium-to-large sizes, where the tapered strokes and looping details remain clear and contribute to the overall texture.
The font reads as approachable and upbeat, like quick marker lettering used for personal notes or handmade signage. Its looping details and contrast add a touch of charm and personality, leaning toward a modern, informal aesthetic rather than formal calligraphy.
Likely designed to capture the spontaneity of brush handwriting in a clean, repeatable set of glyphs, balancing decorative loops with straightforward structures for readable, expressive display typography.
Connections between letters are fluid in running text, but not overly tight, helping the script remain legible at display sizes. Tall ascenders and long descenders create a vertical, airy word silhouette, and the terminals often finish with flicks that add motion and character.
