To start the making of my exposed coil vase I practiced the method of rolling clay into a line/coil. The method I used to roll my coils was to use both hands and apply even pressure throughout rolling. Sometimes I would find that the coil would start to flattened to fix this I press down on the thick side to make it more round then I continue rolling. After making the coil I will use it to make a pattern the most basic pattern on my exposed coil vase is the spiral to make this snake like pattern i simply roll the coil around itself and smooth end so it does not come undone. I Repeated this process multiple times building up my coil vase and smoothing the inside.
