A lively handwritten script with a rightward slant and brush-pen character. Strokes show gently tapered entries and exits with soft, rounded terminals, creating a smooth, continuous rhythm without feeling overly formal. Letterforms are loosely connected in text, with open counters, simple joins, and occasional looped constructions in ascenders/descenders. Overall proportions feel compact and tall, with modest x-height and generous extenders that add motion and personality.
Works well for short- to medium-length display text where a personable, handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, quote graphics, product labels, and social media headlines. It can also serve as an accent font paired with a neutral sans or serif for captions, callouts, or signature-style elements.
The tone is warm and informal, like quick, confident handwriting used for notes or personal messages. Its buoyant curves and occasional flourishes give it a cheerful, slightly whimsical feel while remaining readable and calm rather than flashy.
Designed to capture the ease of everyday cursive writing with a brushy, modern finish—prioritizing charm, momentum, and quick readability over strict calligraphic formality.
Uppercase forms are simplified and slightly irregular in a natural way, reading more like hand-drawn capitals than formal swash caps. Numerals follow the same casual, written rhythm and maintain consistent stroke energy, helping mixed alphanumeric settings feel cohesive.
