Prince Charles has entered some of his paintings for an arts exhibition in Thurso High School. His work is among the 250 on show at the Society of Caithness Artists' 71st annual show, which runs from 1 to 10 August.
The prince also met people who have lost relatives at sea during the last 40 years on his visit to the north.
He joined locals in Scrabster to mark the 50th anniversary of its Royal National Mission to Deep Sea Fishermen.
'Appalling disasters'
Unveiling a commemorative plaque, the prince praised the mission for its work.
He added: "In particular I want to congratulate all those who play such an important part in bringing comfort and help and assistance and, above all, understanding to all those people who have so tragically suffered these appalling disasters with their loved ones at sea."
He is staying at Castle of Mey, the former Highland home of his grandmother, the Queen Mother.
