A lively brush-pen script with a rightward slant and a rhythmic, bouncing baseline. Strokes show clear pressure modulation, producing tapered entry/exit terminals and heavier downstrokes that give the letterforms a calligraphic texture. The shapes are tall and narrow with compact counters, rounded turns, and frequent looped construction, while connections between letters are fluid but not rigidly continuous. Capitals are expressive and simplified, built from a few confident strokes that read well as stand-alone initials.
Works best for short to medium phrases where a warm, handcrafted voice is desired—such as logos, product packaging callouts, headlines on posters, social media graphics, greeting cards, and casual invitations. It can also serve as an accent font paired with a neutral sans for supporting text.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, like quick, confident handwriting with a polished brush-script finish. It feels inviting and modern-craft rather than formal, balancing charm with readability.
Designed to mimic brush-pen handwriting in a consistent, reusable typeface, emphasizing energetic movement, tapered terminals, and friendly proportions. The intent appears to be a contemporary script suitable for expressive display use while remaining legible in common headline lengths.
Descenders are long and curvy, adding momentum and vertical sparkle in running text. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with tapered ends and slightly varied widths, contributing to an organic, non-mechanical rhythm across lines.
