From On the River
Houseboats on the River is an assignment that portrays what the river would be like if humans were to inhabit it as a living space. For years, people have chosen to live on water over land, but limitations such as the flood walls and dams have halted this trend from making The Grand River an option of residence. In order to create these images, use a program such as Adobe Photoshop. Ignore the above restraints and open the viewers mind to the possibility of living in a houseboat on The Grand.
