Thomas - I hate to be obtuse, but did you mean to imply that the xaxis and yaxis properties of an Axes object are AxisArtist objects? IPython tells me that they are XAxis and YAxis objects. From inspecting the GitHub repo, it seems that these are child classes of the Axis object.
I suppose I should ask the question addressing the problem I actually have: How do I render the tick (map) labels *inside* a Cartopy map instead of *outside*?
