A slanted handwritten script with brush-pen construction and visibly textured stroke edges. Letterforms show quick, gestural movement with tapered starts and finishes, occasional pressure swelling, and slight wobble that reads as natural hand rhythm rather than geometric precision. Connections are intermittent—many lowercase forms appear loosely joined or fully separated—while capitals are taller, more flamboyant, and often stand alone like drawn initials. Counters are generally open, spacing is uneven in a purposeful way, and the overall texture is dry-brush and slightly rough, creating a worn, ink-on-paper feel.
Best suited for display-sized uses where the dry-brush texture can be appreciated—posters, packaging labels, cafe/market signage, social graphics, and quote treatments. It works well as an accent font paired with a clean sans or serif for body copy, and is most effective in short headlines or brand marks where its irregular rhythm remains legible.
The font conveys an informal, personal tone with a hint of vintage craft. Its roughened brush texture and energetic slant feel human and approachable, suggesting quick notes, handmade goods, and expressive signage rather than polished corporate typography.
Likely designed to mimic fast brush lettering with a slightly distressed ink edge, prioritizing spontaneity and handmade character. The set aims for expressive display impact while retaining enough structure to read clearly in short lines and title-style settings.
Uppercase shapes are particularly animated, with elongated ascenders and occasional looped strokes that add personality in short phrases. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with simple, quick forms and subtle texture that keeps them consistent with the letters.
