Skimage.io.read imread a PIL Object

So I was working with skimage for some image preprocessing (i'm very new to it). I have a PIL Image object and wanted to convert to a skimage image with skimage.io.imread(). I know that I can just save the image and then run imread on that file, but I was wondering if there was a way I could read the PIL Image object from the code itself. I tried to run imread on the PIL Image object itself but I end up getting errors.

OSError: Cannot understand given URI: <PIL.PngImagePlugin.PngImageFile image mode=RGBA size=192....

Anyone know how I can solve this in skimage.

You may review imageio documentation related to the function imread for including in your code the attribute format and code as follows just in case the image format is PNG: imageio.imread(filename, format = 'PNG')

Scikit-Image stores images as Numpy arrays, so you just need to make a Numpy array from your PIL Image:

ImageForScikit = np.array(YourPILImage)
