A lively brush-script with slanted construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes show dry-brush texture and occasional ink break-up, producing rough interior counters and irregular edges while maintaining an overall consistent rhythm. Letterforms are narrow and compact with a bouncy baseline feel, pairing tall ascenders/descenders with relatively small lowercase bodies. Terminals are tapered and slightly hooked, and capitals read as bold, gestural swashes that contrast with simpler lowercase forms.
Best used for short-to-medium display settings such as posters, branding marks, product packaging, menus, and social graphics where texture can be appreciated. It performs well in punchy headlines and callouts, and can work for brief quotes, though the rough brush texture may feel busy at very small sizes or in dense paragraphs.
The font feels hand-painted and energetic, with a friendly informality that leans crafty and slightly rugged. Its textured stroke and spirited motion give it a personal, homemade tone suited to upbeat, human-centered messaging rather than corporate formality.
Designed to emulate quick brush lettering with visible bristle texture and natural variation, delivering a handcrafted look that feels authentic and energetic. The condensed proportions and strong contrast appear aimed at creating impactful display lines while retaining a casual, personal voice.
Capital letters carry the most visual weight and flourish, while the lowercase remains more restrained, helping mixed-case text stay readable. Numerals follow the same brushed, calligraphic logic, with open curves and tapered ends that keep them consistent with the alphabet.
