A lively brush-style script with an oblique, forward-leaning stance and visibly tapered strokes that shift from thin hairlines to broader downstrokes. Letterforms are mostly unconnected but maintain a consistent rhythmic slant, with rounded terminals, occasional ink-like texture, and gestural entry/exit strokes that suggest quick pen movement. Proportions are compact with relatively small lowercase bodies, and many glyphs show softly irregular contours that reinforce a handmade look. Numerals follow the same brush logic, using simplified, slightly bouncy shapes that match the overall stroke energy.
Well-suited for short-to-medium text where a handcrafted, conversational voice is desired—such as posters, product packaging, café menus, social media graphics, and pull quotes. It performs best at display sizes where the tapered strokes and brush texture remain clear and intentional.
The font reads as informal and upbeat, with a confident, personable tone similar to quick marker notes or hand-lettered signage. Its brushy contrast and dynamic slant convey motion and spontaneity, keeping the texture human and approachable rather than polished or formal.
Designed to mimic fast, confident brush lettering while staying readable across common Latin text. The intent appears to balance expressive stroke dynamics with a consistent slant and repeatable forms, giving designers a casual handwritten feel that still holds together in set text.
Capitals are prominent and stylized, often using sweeping curves and occasional looped forms, which creates a strong headline presence. The overall color is moderately dark with lively internal variation due to tapering and texture, helping the text feel animated even in longer lines.
