This is a gift to her, right? Tell her you need a portrait of a well-dressed, beautiful woman for portrait marketing purposes, which you will then give to her. Don't feel as if you need to create a psychological portrait of her if it's a free painting. (Ruthless, aren't I!) As long as it's dramatic, I'll bet she'll go for it. Don't put her in a suit or a go-to-church dress, but don't make her so outlandish that she'll scare away potential clients looking at your work.
