Raked Bristle Narrow Letterforms
Brush Dry Sweep combines narrow, upright letters with rough edges that visibly follow the direction of each stroke. The O forms an elongated oval around a clear counter, with fine streaks tracing its curved perimeter. The E has uneven horizontal arms whose ragged tips extend beyond the darker core, while the R sends a firm diagonal leg away from its compact bowl. Broad strokes hold the letters together despite the frayed outlines. Slight differences in angle and terminal shape give words a restless rhythm, creating an assertive, hurried mood without closing the spaces inside the letters.
Test the font in your wording
Check rounded counters, ragged terminals and gaps around diagonal letters in your actual wording, especially as previews get smaller. Review accented Latin characters individually; the supplied specimens show Latin lettering, so evaluate other scripts separately with an appropriate companion font.
Font pairing roles
Try this face for short headings, with a clean sans serif handling descriptions and small labels. Its frayed outlines already supply texture, so a companion with smooth edges and regular spacing can give supporting information a calmer rhythm.

How this page was made. Brush Dry Sweep is a FontGenerator library font made with AI; before release its letters were read back one by one by independent automated checks. The design notes were written by AI from the specimen images and checked against them by a second, independent pass; font measurements come from the font file. Preview sizes and spacing are comparison settings.

About
About Brush Dry Sweep
Its lowercase sits low: the x-height is 69.3% of the cap height, where the median for display fonts is 74.4%, lower than 97 of the 116 other display fonts. Ascenders on b, d, h, k and l line up with the capitals (100.9% of their height), and descenders on g, j, p, q and y drop 23.9% of the cap height below the baseline, shallower than 63 of the 116 other display fonts. Brush Dry Sweep runs 26.3% narrower than the median for display fonts: an average lowercase letter, spacing included, is 64.2% as wide as the capitals are tall (an average capital, 70.8%). The o is an upright oval, 0.89 times as wide as it is tall, and M is the widest capital, at 1.06 times the width of H. Round letters overshoot: O rises 7.2% of the cap height above H and dips 1.2% below the baseline.
Ink covers 34.8% of each lowercase letter's box (its advance width by the cap height), lighter than 86 of the 116 other display fonts.
Its 148 characters include 105 Latin letters, plus 43 figures, punctuation marks and symbols; 53 of the Latin letters are accented or special forms beyond A to Z. The word space measures 46.3% of the cap height, and the blank space either side of a lowercase letter takes up 15.3% of its width. The font carries no kerning, so spacing comes from each letter’s own side bearings. The figures have different widths, so columns of numbers set in Brush Dry Sweep will not line up exactly.
Measured from the version 0.1.0 font file. Comparisons are with the 376 published library fonts measured on November 12, 2026, 117 of them display fonts.
