A slanted brush-written print face with dense strokes and noticeable dry-brush texture at terminals and along curves. Forms are compact and relatively tall, with quick, angular joins and tapered ends that suggest fast marker or brush movement. Stroke contrast varies within and between letters, creating a lively rhythm and slightly uneven color across words. Counters are often tight and partially closed, and spacing feels organic rather than strictly regular, reinforcing the hand-drawn construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, packaging callouts, branding lockups, social graphics, and merchandise lettering. It performs well when you want a handcrafted brush feel and strong presence; for longer paragraphs, generous size and spacing help maintain clarity.
The overall tone is bold and punchy, with an energetic, improvised feel that reads as confident and informal. Its rough edges and brisk slant give it a street-poster immediacy, balancing friendly handwritten warmth with a slightly aggressive edge.
Likely designed to capture the immediacy of hand-painted or marker-brushed lettering in a reusable typeface form, emphasizing speed, texture, and emphasis over typographic neutrality. The goal appears to be strong visual personality for display and promotional settings.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent brush logic, with simplified, gestural shapes that prioritize momentum over precision. The texture becomes especially apparent in diagonals and curved strokes, which can add character at display sizes and increase visual noise at smaller sizes.
