Dwindle, means to diminish gradually in size, amount, or strength, which is the inspiration of this script typeface. There was one-time I practicing calligraphy, but the ink went out. I happened to write those letters with a forked pen, so I had space in-between each letter. Later, this idea becomes Dwindle. 

Dwindle accumulates traditional copperplate calligraphy and her style of handwriting script with delicate blanked areas as decoration. The balance of blanked spaces and typeface themselves is where I find the most astonishing, which emphasizes the authentic writing flow by reducing its volume. The philosophy behind this typeface is another reason I am recommending it besides its aesthetics purpose.
Nevertheless, I have designed three different weights. The Dwindle - Regular is blanked in-between, whereas Dwindle - Filled fulfills those spaces. On the other hand, Dwindle - thin only remains the skeleton of Dwindle, which can be colored and overlapped onto regular to make the text in two colors as well.
