Great question. You can use a tool called a proportion divider..so you can constantly measure your still life from where you are sitting/standing to your paper/canvas. Here is a linkwww.amazon.co.uk/Proportional-Architects-Designers-Protective-Pantograph/dp/B0C3QQF253/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=18XBHW9LWQTQ5&keywords=proportional+divider&qid=1701334466&sprefix=proportion+divider%2Caps%2C79&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1 Sometimes if things arn't looking right on my painting I may adjust deviating from the still life set up to make my painting work. Here is a video explaining how to get measurements and shapes correct with measureing. He uses a pencil but can use the tool to. Hope that helps! th-cam.com/video/BavOGXGcR1o/w-d-xo.html

I have a light box, makes painting a lot less stressful.
