I'm attempting to define an IBM Cloud Function in Python using PIL. 

from PIL import Image
from PIL import ImageDraw
from PIL import ImageFont

img = Image.new('RGB', (width, height))
d = ImageDraw.Draw(img)
...

I use Pycharm to do my development. In Pycharm, under site-packages in my Python runtime, I see PIL and Pillow-4.3.0:dist-info. When I run my code locally from within Pycharm it works fine.

I built a virtualenv with the same Python runtime and my code in order to include dependencies not part of the Cloud Functions Python runtime. Examining the virtualenv, I can see the same libraries:

\virtualenv
  \bin
  \include
  \lib
    \python3.6 
      \site-packages
        ...
        \PIL
        \Pillow-4.3.0:dist-info
        ...

However, when I execute my code as a Cloud Function with this virtualenv runtime, I see an error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PIL'.

I'm thinking the error is with how I've constructed my virtualenv, but I'm at a loss as it looks like the same libraries are there.

OK, I figured out the immediate problem. It was a simple error in my deploy script. While my virtualenv content looked fine locally, I had a deployment error that resulted in something other than what I'd intended getting deployed. Now, next error: ImportError: cannot import name '_imaging'
