Artist Mark Riddick recently collaborated with streetwear clothing brand The Hundreds for a series of t-shirts, long sleeved tops and hoodies that feature his dark illustrations. Mark Riddick is celebrated for his detailed and remarkably morbid work, with his artwork gracing the brand logos and more of celebrated metal bands. He was also part of the creation of the Justin Bieber 'Purpose' merchandise as well -- which saw the pieces sell out at pop-up shops and concerts alike.
In his streetwear clothing line with The Hundreds, he incorporates illustrations that are iconic to his celebrated style. All of the pieces are black and white, with the white graphics allowing Mark Riddick's art to stand out. The brand name for The Hundreds appears on each item in the artist's stylistic writing, complementing the demonic imagery that coincides with many of the pieces.
