When does something go beyond its function as a useful item to become something more? An expression of artistic freedom ? Imaginative? Visionary? Fun?
Displayed for you here are a few of the utilitarian forms of fencing I found skirting the yards of some homes here in Truth or Consequences (T or C), New Mexico. Fences that, perhaps, go beyond form and function to be…..something else….something imaginative, something expressive, something more.
Meep, meep!
Colored pencils?
Truck fence of old license plates
Wooded privacy… and beauty
Sticks and stones…..and wire mesh to hold it together
Hand-painted mural on metal sheeting
License bug?
Simply wood

Fantastic! Well observed Annie. I love them. Who wants ordinary? 😀
I love all my walks of discovery. This town thrills me with its extraordinary ways of expression.
Wow – love them all! Creative and fun too. My pick is the bird – and of course the wooded one.
Yes, the roadrunner is a favorite!
Really cool thanks for sharing them.
You’re welcome, Sher!
Someone has had some fun. These are great photos.
This post is the result of happy chance. A week ago I began a 10,000 steps a day walking program. I take a different route every day and began to see these wonderful fences. I just had to share. So happy you like them!
We sure do have some very creative people in this world don’t we? Thanks for sharing.
Art as an everyday occurrence. Wonderful!
That takes good neighbors to a whole new level!
It’s all about the little graces along the way. Thank you, Patti!
That license bug is a totally trippy, fascinating idea 🙂 Love it!
Walking along the roads is the best way to see up close and personal all the wonderful creative ideas that people have. Thank you!
Those are so creative.
It is a cool little town!

How very sweet of you, lambskinny! Thank you so much!
My pleasure!
I’m not sure why, but the wooded privacy one is my favorite. It has sort of a rustic feel to it.
Yes, that’s a unique and snuggly feeling fence. All from material in our natural surroundings!
