The Dolly Parton mural in Nashville that was vandalized earlier this week is as good as new. The artist, Kim Radford, shared a time-lapse clip on Instagram showing herself restoring the painting of the country star. On Monday, an alleged vandal, who hasn’t been publicly named, defaced the mural with splatters of black paint. He told The Five Spot, a music venue where the mural appears, that he vandalized the paint because he’s in a “bad mental state.”
