“With terrible thoughts”: Anastasia Makeeva flees from jumping tailless on the site

The artist urgently needs a new land

Anastasia Makeeva found herself in a difficult situation. Together with her husband Roman Malkov, as you know, they have been living outside the city for several years. Some time ago, the couple started a grandiose construction on the site in order to turn it into a multifunctional home complex, where there will be everything necessary for life. But, as usual, it was not without problems. The actress shared the details with Moskovsky Komsomolets.

– We are building in the country, we are arguing passionately about what and how to do, what to buy and where to hang. Recently, a pond was dug, and then a landscape designer and an agronomist came, who said that it was impossible to make a pond on our site. Because, they say, you have a birch nearby, and foliage will fall into the pond all the time, which will begin to rot. You will have frogs. And here I am, with terrible thoughts that the pond, which we have been digging for more than a month, I persuaded my husband to do it, will now have to be buried. But where to get this land?

– Well, if it dies in one place, then in another, according to the classics of the genre, it will arrive. Did something appear on the site that will not have to be demolished?

– Yes, we have a luxurious domed gazebo over the pool – this is our pride. The setting sun is depicted there, clouds depart from it, a very beautiful northern lights. We built a woodcutter, we are building a salt cave so that we can sit there and improve our health. It is preventive medicine against all lung diseases. I myself painted the ceiling by hand – there is a starry sky. They also built a workshop where I, doing decorating art, make repairs with my own hands. I even started a youtube channel where I tell you how to give a second life to your favorite things, restore furniture…

Do you also restore furniture? Where does the actress have such skills?

– Well, I’m learning on the go. She called the artist and simply said: “I want like this: teach me.” She showed me the principles, we did it together, and it turned out cool. At the dacha, I gave myself a place where all my paints, stencils, spatulas, chisels are now located. There I come up with something else to decorate. For example, we made a very interesting author’s table in the country. I’m torn there to finish it and rejoice. I love buying unusual things. For example, we bought a frame (the basis of the design is ed.) from Zinger, painted it, ordered a countertop, which I painted. This will be the author’s table, unlike anyone else. And recently we were presented with a painting for an award, but there is nowhere to hang it, so we decided to place it under glass. The picture depicts a panda, so the idea arose to blow out bamboo branches with leaves along the edges of the glass picture. I called my friend who works on glass, and we are going to her workshop, where we will blow bamboo branches like Murano glass with fire and glue the leaves. I think it will be beautiful.

What does your husband say about this?

– He suffers the poor, but in fact he helps a lot.
