About the Alex Brush font
Alex Brush is a handwriting typeface designed by Robert Leuschke, first released to Google Fonts on December 2011. It ships with 1 weight and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a low x-height at 65% of the cap height, condensed letter forms and low stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Alex Brush against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
