I built a shadowbox and I’m wondering how to light my easel without affecting the lighting of the shadowbox. The shadow box light looks great until I turn on the lights for my easel. I have 2- 5000k led strip lights at a 35 deg angle from my canvas above and behind me. My shadow box is next to my easel but 4’ away back from myself and the easel.

Welcome to the Forum.
Place the shadow box directly under the studio light and shield the front of the shadow box with a canopy overhanging the top. Check and eliminate bounce from adjacent reflective surfaces.

The orange on the right is the canvas. a downward view of the orange, On the left is a structure within a structure. A box with an orange and light. The outer structure isolated the inner 'look' from th e painting light over the left shoulder.
Done with Strata 3d CG software. All. you need for a show box is a card board box and a light. Then idk you are going to paint from life a 'skrim' to protect the scene.
Here a post on how I build a new shadowbox a couple of years ago
