Both his writing and his painting. Reading Mien Kampf is easily among one of the most excruciatingly painful reading experiences I’ve encountered over the course of my life, and I have nothing to say about that book other than that it’s incoherent garbage.
Hitler’s paintings are also awful and show a complete disregard and misunderstanding of basic art principles and compositional cohesion. His work is incredibly amateurish at best.
Also his artwork wasn’t how he showed his vision to anyone? Unless you meant his writing. His paintings are just castles and random still life pieces.

You could say the same things about Picaso.
His paintings and writing may not be to your taste but they were certainly evocative to his followers.
Not all of his artwork was terrible. (Possibly NSFW.) Some of his drawings like Selbstporträt and his WWI scenes certainly do look lousy, but other pieces like Schloss Neuschwanstein actually look pretty okay. He was a petty bourgeois who made a living vending his artwork, so apparently some of it was good enough for the German market.
Hitler’s art fucking sucked ass.

That being said, Mein Kampf is such a slog that not even Benito Mussolini could finish it.
