Roman Gulman was born in Kyiv, where he studied art, and later moved to Israel, graduating from the “Askola” Higher School of Design. After many years working in graphic design, advertising, and branding, he returned to his first love — painting.
His works carry the influence of the French Impressionists and the Russian school: a vivid palette, expressive brushwork, and a deep attention to light and color. Yet above all, his art is centered on the human being.
Gulman paints the same face again and again, leaving visible traces of previous layers on the canvas. This process creates portraits filled with depth, complexity, and multilayered emotional structures. They are not a critique of reality nor an invention of a new one, but rather an exploration of human nature.
His figures are at once open and enigmatic, inviting the viewer into a dialogue and leading them on a journey through emotions and imagery.
Roman Gulman’s works are held in private collections worldwide, as well as in the collection of the Ilana Goor Museum in Jaffa Tel Aviv, Israel.
The background, rendered in delicate contour lines, remains intentionally incomplete. It serves as a silent stage—awaiting animation by the presence of the goddess. Through this stark contrast between monochrome sketch and tactile color, Elkanovich suggests a world still in the making, one that comes alive only through movement, creation, and feminine force.
Executed in his signature Natanism technique—using pastry piping tools to layer plastic with precision and emotion—the work invites us to experience not only a visual scene, but a myth in motion. She is not carried by the wind.
She is the wind.

Natan has also drawn inspiration from the work of David Hockney, an artist he greatly admires. What began modestly with a series of pool paintings inspired by the spirit of Hockney’s masterpieces soon evolved, through dedication and creativity, into a full line of accessible works. Each painting is uniquely infused with Natan’s own artistic vision and style.
Over the past year, this series of pool paintings has found remarkable success among his collectors worldwide.

Rendered in sepia monochrome, the scene hums with a muted warmth — as if time itself has softened.
The horizon fades gently, mirroring the introspection within.
This is not silence, but stillness: a tone that resonates beyond sound, echoing through memory and mind.
