A lively connected script with a brush-pen feel, built from narrow, forward-leaning forms and compact proportions. Strokes show strong thick–thin modulation with visible drawn texture inside the heavier strokes, giving the letters a slightly rough, inked-in look rather than a flat solid. Terminals are rounded and often flick upward, with occasional loops and soft joins that keep the rhythm flowing. Uppercase forms are tall and gestural, while lowercase is tighter and more compact, creating a pronounced contrast between headline caps and the main cursive run.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text such as headlines, quotes, packaging labels, posters, and social media graphics where a handmade voice is desirable. It can also work for invitations or greeting cards, especially at larger sizes where the textured strokes and looping connections read clearly.
The overall tone is upbeat and personable, like hand-lettered signage or a quick note written with a brush marker. Its energetic slant, looping joins, and textured fills add a crafty, informal charm that feels modern and approachable rather than formal or traditional.
Designed to emulate quick brush lettering in a cohesive, font-ready script, prioritizing warmth, motion, and expressive texture. The letterforms aim to deliver an informal hand-lettered look that feels personal and energetic in branding and display applications.
Spacing appears intentionally irregular in a hand-drawn way, and the internal texture means the color on the page is lively and slightly variegated. The numerals echo the same brushy construction and forward motion, suited to display settings where character matters more than strict regularity.
