A slanted handwritten print face with brush-pen character and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes show tapered starts and finishes with occasional swelling through curves, producing a slightly textured, drawn-by-hand feel without connecting letters. Proportions are tall and compressed, with narrow counters and compact lowercase forms; ascenders are prominent and capitals stand upright with simplified, gestural construction. Curves are rounded and quick, terminals are mostly soft and flicked, and spacing varies subtly to preserve an informal, natural cadence in words and lines.
Well-suited for short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, packaging callouts, social media graphics, and informal headlines. It also works nicely for quotes, event promos, and branding accents where a personable handwritten tone is desired, especially when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing.
The overall tone is energetic and conversational, like quick note-taking or headline lettering made with a marker. Its bouncy slant and emphatic stroke endings give it a spirited, approachable personality that feels modern and informal rather than formal or traditional.
This font appears designed to capture the immediacy of brushed handwriting in a readable, unconnected print style. The intent seems to be fast, expressive display typography that adds human warmth and motion to modern layouts.
The letterforms favor speed and gesture over strict symmetry, with noticeable variation in stroke entry/exit angles and a hand-drawn baseline feel. Numerals follow the same brisk, narrow construction, reading best when given room and used at larger sizes.
