Merdeka Belajar Education Policy aims to accelerate the achievement of national education goals, namely to improve the quality of Indonesia's human resources who have advantages and competitiveness compared to other countries. Learning concept of “Merdeka Belajar” should make learning acceptable to students without of coercion and also easy for teachers to use in various conditions. Fine Arts subjects at the high school level should have applied the concept of independence even before the issuance of the Merdeka Belajar policy by the Ministry of Education and Culture. Along with the time, there is no learning model either about practice or the assessment. Therefore, this study aims to find a learning model for independent learning that will be implemented in fine arts subjects at the high school level. The data collection method used literature studies and focus discussion groups conducted on student and teacher group respondents. From the results, Merdeka Belajar is seen as a learning concept that is not burdensome and enables students to explore their knowledge in their own way. From the results of the literature study shows that there are 47 aspects as criteria for the Merdeka Belajar Learning Model. These 47 aspects are divided into 3 types of categories, namely the categorization of meaning by diction, then the dimensions of practice carried out by teachers and students in the classroom, and aspects of practice taken from the policy objectives of Merdeka Belajar. From these aspects it is matched with the 9 selected learning models. Merdeka Belajar has similarities to project-based learning models and this type of model is student-centered. This learning model can help students to be more independent in finding information. The teacher can directs the style of learning, so it can be more flexible and make students more comfortable in their work and not be constrained by rules.
