Why Do Some People Prefer Warm Colors?

Some people like warm colors because they feel cozy, like being wrapped in a blanket on a cold day. Warm colors are reds, oranges, and yellows, the kind of colors you see in sunsets or campfires. These colors make people feel happy and relaxed, which is why some artists use them to create cheerful paintings.
