I saw the 60 minutes documentary. I'm highly skeptical about her doing 100% of the painting. But the bigger issue is not whether she does or not. The paintings suck. Even the purest of abstract painters are still building on a lifetime of experience and knowledge about colors, forms, lines, relationships, perspectives. They are not arbitrary despite how radically disassociated from any recognizable form they may appear. These paintings are 100% arbitrary with always a handful of elements that appear to be added after the fact, and I suspect are not even Marla's. Lets face it.. if I did that painting I'd be laughed out of any gallery on earth and if I sold it for a few thousand dollars I'd feel I cheated someone. Maybe someday Marla will become a talented great painter... but the odds are not good and seeing the marketing of her work is as foolish as trying to put a little leage baseball player on the Mariners starting lineup.
