The more I draw from life, the more I feel a challenge that might be in the reverse of most here.

I have been thinking about making a model stand (I especially loved the idea I saw somewhere from Chris Saper about adding flat shelf storage), but if the purpose is to raise the model to your eye level, what does the vertically challenged artist do? Should I be considering an artist platform? I have shied away from anyone in a standing pose for this purpose, but I know I am supposed to walk back from my canvas and would need a runway if I were to elevate the easel and myself? Perhaps I am thinking about this wrong.

I forgot to mention my models sit on a high stool.
