For $2\leq p<\infty$, we consider convex biholomorphic mappings $F$ of the $p$-ball $B_p = \{(z,w)\in\mathbb{C}^2:\, |z|^p+|w|^p<1\}$. In particular, we find conditions under which functions of the form $F(z,w)=(z+aw^k,w)$, where $a\in\mathbb{C}$ and $k\in\mathbb{N}$, and $F(z,w)=(f(z),g(w))$, where $f$ and $g$ are mappings of the unit disk, map $B_p$ onto convex domains in $\mathbb{C}^2$.

Keywords: Biholomorphic mapping, convex mapping, p-norm.
