Hi Anika!
This behaviour is on purpose. The layer that is generated when you import drawings, or any kind of images, is called a “reference layer”. It is not for drawing directly upon. To draw on top, you just add a new layer (press N) and then you can draw all you want.
Technically the reference- and drawing layers are very different. That is why they must be kept apart.
Cheers,
Niels
