Shalva Font
Author's note
Shalva by Slava Meskhi is a free graffiti script built from quick hand-drawn strokes. Its letters shift between loose curves and sudden angles, with uneven widths that resemble marker or paint pen work. Long sweeping lines and compressed joins give the writing the impulsive look of a personal tag.
The font can turn a logo or event title into part of the artwork rather than ordinary lettering. It also fits music posters and streetwear merchandise. Across those uses, the shared thread is its fast, improvised mark-making.
