Question: at which point in your process does the dopamine hit?

I am somewhat of an artist myself, but I find myself struggle at different points in my pieces. I have trouble finishing, as I can get frustrated. When I look, I am good at art, but I struggle with finding net joy (as in, struggle some times, enjoy others, but more time in joy). I usually experience net stress, net frustration, or net "this sucks". TIA

The most fun for me is in the initial sketching phase, because you get to try new things and problem solve actively. During the more boring rendering phase I usually hop on an art discord, start a live stream, or listen to an audio book so I can turn my brain off and focus on other things. Then finishing the piece and showing it off to people is another dopamine hit.
