A brush-drawn print face with thick, slightly wavering strokes and rough, dry edges that leave occasional nicks and tapering ends. Letterforms are compact and generally upright, with uneven stroke widths and subtly inconsistent curves that emphasize a hand-made rhythm. Counters tend to be small and openings are sometimes tight, while rounded shapes (O, C, G) show an intentionally imperfect, painted contour. Spacing feels loosely set and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, reinforcing an informal, hand-rendered texture in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where texture and personality are desirable, such as posters, packaging, labels, café-style signage, or editorial headlines. It can also work for pull quotes and titles, while dense body text may feel heavy due to the compact counters and brush texture.
The overall tone is friendly and energetic, like quick marker or brush signage. Its roughened edges and imperfect alignment add a crafty, human warmth that reads as casual and slightly rugged rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic quick hand-painted lettering—confident, legible, and characterful—capturing the look of a brush or marker on paper. Its goal seems to be adding immediacy and authenticity through irregular contours, dry-brush artifacts, and a lively, uneven rhythm.
Caps have a poster-like presence, while the lowercase retains the same brush texture and irregularity for a consistent voice. Numerals match the hand-painted feel, with simplified forms and soft, blunted terminals that keep the texture cohesive across text.
