Use annotations . They are not connected to the axes but to the figure itself.

[Walter Roberson]

(Internally, annotations are connected to a hidden axes that is over top of the whole figure.)

[Fabiano Baroni]

This enables one to draw lines or arrows, but not markers (such as 'o','x','+','*','s', etc.). Is there a convenient solution for drawing markers outside of the current axis? Thank you.

[Walter Roberson]

You can turn off the axes clipping property .
