if(erase)
    {
        UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
        CGPoint currentTouch = [touch locationInView:extraImageVw];

        CGFloat brushSize;
        if (isEraser)
        {
            brushSize=25.0;
        }
        else
        {
            brushSize=25.0;
        }
        CGColorRef strokeColor = [UIColor whiteColor].CGColor;

        UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(extraImageVw.frame.size);

        CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
        [extraImageVw.image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, extraImageVw.frame.size.width, extraImageVw.frame.size.height)];
        CGContextSetLineCap(context, kCGLineCapRound);
        CGContextSetLineWidth(context, brushSize);
        if (isEraser) {
            CGContextSetStrokeColorWithColor(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(), [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:fullPathToFile]].CGColor);
        }
        else
        {
            CGContextSetStrokeColorWithColor(context, strokeColor);
            CGContextSetBlendMode(context, kCGBlendModeClear);
        }
        CGContextSaveGState(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext());
        CGContextBeginPath(context);
        CGContextMoveToPoint(context, Lastpoint.x, Lastpoint.y);
        CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, currentTouch.x, currentTouch.y);
        CGContextStrokePath(context);
        extraImageVw.image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

        Lastpoint = [touch locationInView:extraImageVw];


    }
