Why can’t Python import Image from PIL?

by

I had the same error. Here was my workflow. I first installed PIL (not Pillow) using 

pip install --no-index -f https://dist.plone.org/thirdparty/ -U PIL

Then I found Pillow and installed it using

pip install Pillow

What fixed my issues was uninstalling both and reinstalling Pillow

pip uninstall PIL
pip uninstall Pillow
pip install Pillow
