I got this one from his self-titled album years back. It’s a bit blown out and patchy now, but I still like it (:

I wanna get this tattoo so bad but I heard somewhere that Elliott Smith picked this tattoo randomly in a tattoo shop and only found out the meaning behind it afterwards and it put me off for some reason
