Tai Sheridan

I’m a writer, artist, and contemplative practitioner working at the intersection of lived philosophy, embodiment, and everyday life.

My work is concerned with how meaning forms—not as an abstract idea, but as something shaped through attention, relationship, creative work, and time. I’m interested in coherence: how a life comes together gradually through returning again and again to what is present and true.

Rather than offering systems or prescriptions, my books explore orientation—how we meet experience, how we think, how we create, and how we live with what we make. The writing is philosophical in spirit, but grounded in ordinary language and human scale.
​
Alongside writing, my visual work and contemplative teaching draw from the same source: a commitment to presence, simplicity, and honest making. Across all of it runs a single thread—returning to what is already here, and learning to live from that place with care.

​THE STUDIO

Single Stone Studios is the umbrella under which this work is gathered.
It is not an educational center or a platform.

It is a studio in the traditional sense:
a place where work is shaped slowly and meaning is allowed to emerge.
​
Books, practices, and visual work are held here as parts of a living body of work.

BACKGROUND

Sheridan has worked for decades with individuals, artists, and organizations, drawing from psychology, contemplative traditions, and creative practice.

His work is informed by Zen and Buddhist practice, symbolic and visual forms, and sustained attention to ordinary life.
​
He lives and works in the Pacific Northwest, where place, weather, and landscape continue to shape the work.
