阿尔法与相同的透明图像混合

Question

I'd like to draw in my iPad app as in the following image.

But what I got is the following result.

Following is my code to draw the image.

 [brushImage drawAtPoint:CGPointZero blendMode:kCGBlendModeNormal alpha:.1f];   

How do I blend a transparent image and get the result like first picture? Any suggestion?

Many thanks.
