A bold, slanted brush-script with a dry, textured stroke that produces rough edges, ink breaks, and heavy tapering at terminals. Letterforms are built from quick, angular gestures with a variable stroke rhythm—thick downstrokes and thinner connecting strokes—creating high contrast within and across glyphs. The baseline is lively and slightly uneven, spacing is irregular in a natural handwritten way, and widths fluctuate noticeably from narrow joins to broad, swashed shapes. Counters tend to be tight, and small letters read compact, reinforcing the short x-height impression in running text.
Works best for short, prominent text such as posters, headlines, brand marks, packaging callouts, and album or event graphics where a hand-painted look is desired. It can also serve for punchy quotes or social graphics, especially when set at larger sizes to preserve the brush texture and internal detail.
The font conveys a spontaneous, hand-painted attitude—assertive, gritty, and full of momentum. Its rough brush texture adds a raw, analog feel, while the forward slant and sharp turns make it feel fast and emphatic, suited to informal and high-energy messaging.
Likely designed to emulate quick brush lettering with visible bristle texture and natural stroke variation, prioritizing personality and impact over strict regularity. The forms aim to feel hand-made and immediate, giving designers an expressive script for attention-grabbing display settings.
Uppercase forms have a strong display presence with chunky silhouettes, while lowercase and numerals keep the same brush logic and textured edges. At smaller sizes the texture and tight counters can reduce clarity, but at headline sizes the irregular stroke breaks become a defining, expressive feature.
