Author's note

Quid Pro Quo by David Kerkhoff is a free trash script font with the speed and disorder of an oversized autograph. Its strokes swing from broad, ink-heavy slashes to hairline flicks, with loops and overlaps that make the lettering feel hurried and raw. The uneven forms are expressive rather than polished.

Its scratched, gestural marks can merge with distressed photography or rough collage in music posters, album artwork, and fashion editorials. Independent labels, streetwear brands, and nightlife promoters are the clearest audience for its unruly signature style.
