Abstract : We develop closed form formulae for the computation of the defining fields of convolutions surfaces. The formulae are obtained for power inverse kernels with skeletons made of line segments or arcs of circle. To obtain the formulae we use Creative Telescoping and describe how this technique can be used for other families of kernels and skeleton primitives. We apply the new formulae to obtain convolution surfaces around $\mathcal{G}^1$ skeletons, some of them closed curves. We showcase how the use of arcs of circles greatly improves the visualization of the surface around a general curve compared with a segment based approach.
