A lively brush-script with a consistent rightward slant and softly rounded forms. Strokes show clear pen-pressure behavior: thicker downstrokes, slimmer upstrokes, and tapered entries and exits that mimic a felt-tip or brush marker. Letterforms are compact with tight internal counters, and the rhythm is slightly irregular in a natural, handwritten way. Connections are implied through flowing terminals rather than rigid joining, while capitals are larger, loopier, and more gestural than the lowercase. Numerals follow the same casual brush logic with open, handwritten proportions.
Works best for short, attention-getting text where a handcrafted voice is desirable—logos, packaging callouts, poster headlines, social posts, invitations, and quote graphics. It can also suit subheads or accent text paired with a neutral sans or serif for longer reading.
The overall tone feels personable and upbeat, like quick but confident handwriting used for a note, label, or headline. Its brushy texture and slanted motion add warmth and spontaneity, leaning more conversational than formal.
Designed to capture an informal brush-pen signature feel with energetic strokes and a natural handwritten swing. The intent appears to prioritize personality and motion over strict regularity, giving designers a friendly script for expressive display typography.
The texture is smooth and ink-like, with occasional sharp hooks and flicks on ascenders and terminals that add momentum. Uppercase shapes read as display-oriented, while the lowercase maintains a compact, quick-written cadence.
