Don't start with Vulkan, it is extremely complex, and even seasoned graphics programmers have a hard time with it.
Its purpose is to give as much control as possible to 3D engine developers. If you don't want to use an engine and don't want to make an engine, OpenGL is still the answer, and I don't think it will disappear anytime soon.
If you want still want to learn Vulkan, at least use something simpler (like OpenGL) to get familiar with the basics, it is simply too much for a beginner.
