I took this film as a satire of the general artist's struggle to win acceptance in the art world. Of course, the need for him to make each of his pieces better than the last becomes a complication when he has to commit murder to produce art. There was the very real issue put into the film of how one actually becomes a "real artist" and the need for encouragement from his peers.
I'm not sure if the untimely demise of the main character was meant to be a metaphor for the short string of time some artists can be appreciated, but if nothing else, it was a moral to the more literal parts of the story.
