A connected brush-script with a forward slant and heavy, high-contrast strokes that swell and taper like wet ink. Letterforms are rounded and slightly compressed, with a low x-height and prominent ascenders/descenders that create a lively vertical rhythm. Edges and counters show deliberate texture and uneven fill, suggesting rough printing or dry-brush drag, while stroke joins and terminals stay soft and cursive. Spacing is moderately tight and the baseline feel is gently bouncy, helping the script read as energetic rather than formal.
Works best at display sizes where the textured stroke and tapering contrast can be appreciated—such as posters, product packaging, café menus, event graphics, and logo wordmarks. It can also support short callouts or pull quotes, especially when a handmade, vintage-leaning script is desired.
The overall tone is friendly and expressive, with a handcrafted, slightly worn finish that evokes vintage signage and casual brush lettering. Its textured ink character adds warmth and a touch of grit, balancing charm with a rugged, analog feel.
Designed to mimic bold brush lettering with an intentionally imperfect, ink-textured finish, prioritizing personality and tactile impact over crisp uniformity. The slanted, connected forms aim to deliver quick, expressive emphasis suitable for themed and decorative applications.
Uppercase letters lean toward simplified, script-like caps rather than formal calligraphic constructions, and many forms carry small swashes or hooked terminals. Numerals follow the same brush rhythm, keeping the set visually consistent for headline-style use.
