Keep in mind that art is a process. Artists experiment in many different styles before they find their niche.
I'm not skeptical of the rainbows. I think they represent a vision, a dream of what he wanted the world to be, or perhaps of how he saw the world at the time. I think he was a beautiful and sensitive soul before he changed into the maniac he was at the end. No person out there is 100% good or bad. His art reveals a side of him which was not seen. Perhaps in the end, as a failed artist, he produced in the only way he could by death, war and chaos.
Some of his art dabbles in the styles he came to detest in the end.
Who knows what went wrong. Only he can answer that question and the rest is all speculation. We only know the outcome, which was an atrocity.
