@davidrevoy have you looked into split keyboards? you could position one half to the left and one to the right of the drawing board.

i've also seen some fancy designs for small macro pads that are a bit easier to handle than a full-size keyboard, e.g. this one that the designer uses to press shortcuts when drawing on a tablet (photo), source: https://github.com/GEIGEIGEIST/REGAL
