A loose, handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and a quick, forward-leaning rhythm. Strokes are mostly slim with subtle modulation, and terminals frequently taper or flick into short swashes. Letterforms are narrow and tall overall, with small lowercase bodies and prominent ascenders/descenders that create a vertical, bouncy texture. Connections are selective rather than fully continuous, giving words a natural hand-drawn cadence while keeping counters fairly open for a script.
Works well for short-to-medium display text such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, packaging labels, and social posts. It is especially effective for headers, pull quotes, and accent lines where its tall rhythm and expressive capitals can be featured without needing dense readability at small sizes.
The font reads as friendly and spontaneous, like informal notes or handcrafted labeling. Its lively loops and energetic slant add charm and motion, making text feel approachable and expressive rather than formal.
Likely designed to capture a modern brush-script look with a natural, human cadence—balancing legibility with decorative loops and lively stroke endings to feel handmade and contemporary.
Capitals tend to be more decorative and varied, with occasional looped entries and long strokes that can create strong word-initial emphasis. Numerals are similarly handwritten and slender, matching the overall airy color on the page. Spacing appears naturally irregular in a way that reinforces the authentic, written-by-hand character.
