A tall, brush-pen styled handwritten script with a lively, slightly irregular rhythm. Strokes show pronounced contrast between thick downstrokes and finer hairlines, with tapered terminals and occasional ink-like swell. Letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with long ascenders and descenders and a generally open, airy interior space. Connections are loose and intermittent rather than fully continuous, creating a natural hand-drawn flow while keeping individual letters distinguishable.
Works best for short to medium display settings where the lively stroke contrast and narrow proportions can shine—such as headlines, invitations, greeting cards, packaging accents, and social graphics. It can also suit pull quotes and posters, especially when paired with a simple sans or serif for supporting text.
The overall tone feels upbeat and personable, like quick marker lettering on a note or shop sign. Its narrow, bouncy forms and expressive stroke modulation give it a light, energetic presence with a touch of whimsy.
Designed to mimic quick, confident brush handwriting with a polished consistency suitable for digital typesetting. The narrow, upright stance and high-contrast strokes aim to deliver an expressive script look while staying relatively legible in word shapes and mixed-case text.
Capitals are especially expressive, mixing simple upright stems with occasional loops and curls, which adds variety at the start of words. Numerals share the same brushy contrast and narrow proportions, reading clearly while maintaining the handwritten character.
