A lively, hand-drawn script with a brush-pen feel, combining smooth curves with occasional dry-brush texture at terminals and joins. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation and a consistent forward slant, with narrow letterforms and compact counters that keep words tight on the line. Many lowercase letters connect naturally, while capitals tend to stand alone as simplified, upright brush shapes with rounded ends and tapered entries. Ascenders are tall and slender, descenders are long and looping, and spacing is slightly irregular in a way that reinforces the handwritten rhythm.
Works best for short to medium text where personality is the priority—posters, product labels, invitations, greeting cards, and social graphics. It also suits quote treatments and display typography, especially when paired with a neutral sans for supporting copy.
The tone is approachable and upbeat, like quick lettering made for personal notes and craft labels. Its energetic loops and expressive contrast lend a playful, human voice rather than a formal calligraphic one.
Designed to emulate quick, confident brush handwriting with connected lowercase forms and expressive stroke modulation, aiming for an organic, friendly presence in display settings.
Uppercase forms read as bold, gestural brush marks, while the lowercase carries most of the script flow; this mixed construction gives headings a casual, hand-lettered character. Numerals are similarly expressive, with curved strokes and varying widths that match the alphabet’s texture.
