Author's note

BleedingHeart by Jonathan Vivanco is a free groovy display font with dense, rounded letters and an unmistakably hand-shaped silhouette. Its swollen strokes bend into soft hooks and broad curves, with uneven edges that keep the forms from looking mechanically smooth. The lettering feels playful but slightly strange, closer to poured paint than tidy bubble type.

A candy brand or offbeat toy shop could use its blobby forms across packaging, signage, and merchandise, where the lettering can become part of the product imagery. It also suits psychedelic music posters and surreal cartoon projects.
