      Conditions for Bernstein-Bézier-Farin approximations defined over triangles to be convex have recently been developed by \textit{G. Chang} and \textit{P. J. Davis} [J. Approximation Theory 40, 11-28 (1984; Zbl 0528.41005)] and by \textit{P. Chang} and \textit{Y. Feng} (1984). This note gives a geometric interpretation of these convexity conditions based on the normal curvature and the second fundamental form of the surface.
