A tall, slender handwritten script with a brush-pen feel and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are mostly upright with a lively baseline bounce and smooth, tapered stroke endings. Counters are relatively open, while ascenders and descenders are long and prominent, giving the design a vertical, airy rhythm. Connections are suggested in the flow, but many characters retain distinct starts and stops, keeping the texture legible and sketch-like rather than fully continuous.
This font works well for short to medium text where a personal, handcrafted voice is desired—such as social graphics, greeting cards, invitations, and boutique packaging. It also suits headings, pull quotes, and logo wordmarks that benefit from an energetic handwritten presence. For best results, give it breathing room and use sizes where the fine hairlines and tight forms remain clear.
The font reads as relaxed and personable, like quick, confident marker lettering. Its narrow, looping forms and animated rhythm create a light, upbeat tone that feels informal and approachable. Overall it conveys a handcrafted charm suited to contemporary casual messaging rather than formal typography.
The design appears intended to capture the speed and charm of modern brush handwriting in a compact, vertically driven silhouette. Contrast and tapering strokes emphasize gesture and rhythm, while simplified shapes keep it readable for display and headline use. The overall construction balances expressive capitals with straightforward lowercase for practical, informal typography.
Caps are expressive and slightly decorative, with occasional entry/exit swashes that add emphasis in word-initial positions. Numerals match the handwritten character, with simple, flowing shapes and consistent contrast, making them feel integrated with the letterforms. Spacing appears intentionally irregular in a natural handwritten way, producing an organic, slightly varied color in text.
