A casual handwritten print with tall, slender letterforms and a lively rightward slant. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation, with tapered joins and occasional brush-pen swell that creates a rhythmic, slightly irregular baseline. Counters are open and rounded, terminals are soft and often lightly flared, and many forms incorporate gentle loops (notably in letters like g, y, and j). Uppercase characters are narrow and elongated with simplified structures, while lowercase keeps a compact body with long ascenders/descenders and variable character widths.
Best suited to short text where its handwritten character can be appreciated—headlines, pull quotes, invitations, greeting cards, and lifestyle or craft-themed packaging. It can work well in social posts and display settings, especially when set with comfortable tracking and ample line spacing.
The overall tone feels personable and upbeat, like quick marker lettering used for notes, labels, or casual headlines. Its bounce and organic inconsistencies add charm and approachability, leaning more whimsical than formal.
Designed to mimic informal hand lettering with a brush-pen feel—combining narrow, tall proportions with expressive contrast to deliver a light, energetic signature-like presence in display typography.
The contrast and tapering can make fine strokes delicate at small sizes, while the tall proportions emphasize vertical rhythm. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, with rounded shapes and light entry/exit strokes that match the letterforms.
