Ngaire, remember, she isn't paying you and you don't have to meet any standard whatsoever. Take all the pressure off yourself! You don't have to satisfy her. That's the beauty of not always having to do commissions.
The problem with drawing your friends is that there is some pressure to flatter them, but I have this problem with self-portraits as well.
